Nigerian Puff Puff

(Thanks Mrs. Feyi!)

 

2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 packet yeast
1 egg (optional)
1-2 cups water or milk, warmed slightly
Oil for deep frying

Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup of warm liquid. Mix together dry ingredients. Add liquid to dry, 1/2 cup at a time until you have "a banana bread consistency".

Cover and let rise until doubled or tripled.

Gather dough into balls and drop immediately into 350 degree deep-fry oil.

Quickly cover oil with a layer of puff puff balls to provide support for each other. Flip when golden on bottom. Remove when golden all over. Drain.

Mrs. Feyi says they are best eaten hot.
