4. Put in a bowl and cover with a kitchen cloth, and put aside to rise for 1 hour or until the dough is double in size. The dough should spring back slowly when pressed.

7. Heat oil in a pan to 160 degrees, put the balls in the oil and fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Turn the donuts to cook on the underside.
