Puff-puff

Description
Makes 40-60 balls.

Ingredients

 * 2 cups (or about ½ liter) flour
 * 2 cups (or about ½ liter) water
 * ½ cup (or about an eighth of a liter) sugar
 * 2 teaspoons yeast
 * Some vegetable oil

Directions

 * 1) Mix the flour, sugar, water, and yeast together until the batter is smooth.
 * 2) Wait until the dough has risen. About 2½ hours or so should do. (I've heard that if you use quick-rising yeast, you don't have to wait, but I have not tried it yet.)
 * 3) Put vegetable oil into a pot, until it is at least 2 inches (or about 5 centimeters) high (too little will result in flatter balls), and place on low heat.
 * 4) Test to make sure the oil is hot enough by putting a 'drop' of batter into the oil. If it is not hot enough, the batter will stay at the bottom of the pot rather than rising to the top.
 * 5) When the oil is hot enough, use a spoon to dish up the batter, and another spoon or spatula to drop it in the oil, sort of in the shape of a ball.
 * 6) Fry for a few minutes until the bottom side is golden brown.
 * 7) Turn the ball over and fry for a few more minutes until the other side is golden brown.
 * 8) Use a large spoon or something like that to take it out of the oil. I usually place them on napkins right away to soak up some of the excess oil.
 * 9) If desired, you can roll the finished product in table sugar or powdered sugar to make it sweeter.
