Hi I'm Francis, the host of this show, "Cooking with Dog".
Today, we are going to prepare simple "doughnut holes" following a youtube recipe from Francis.
Sift 100 g of plain flour and 2 tsp of baking powder into a bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk 1 egg, 2 tbsp brown sugar, roughly 1/4 cup milk and 1 tbsp melted butter. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and mix to form a batter.
The milk/flour ratio is important - you can adjust it so the batter is liquid enough to be mixable, but not runny.
(I tried this once with the 2 tbsp milk in the original recipe and ended up with what looked like dry chicken nuggets...)
Heat oil to 170 deg C. Drop a little bit of batter into the oil - it is the right temperature if it bubbles but not too vigorously. When ready, take a half spoonful of batter and scrape it into the oil to form small balls.
Once the dough balls have grown in size and are browned on the outside (a few minutes), leave them to cool on a rack.
These doughnut balls are delicious when still warm and crisp on the outside. Eat as many as you like at this stage - they taste surprisingly like those asian fried dough things "haam jim beng???" (咸煎饼) or even "you tiao".
Once cooled completely, place them in a plastic bag and shake together with your desired coating (sugar, cinnamon, matcha etc.)
Serve with your favourite ice-cream!
For a black sesame ice-cream recipe, it was basically the same as my green tea ice cream recipe, except with ground toasted black sesame seeds.

| A little misshapen sometmies - the batter was slightly too runny. |
