Ecomely’s estimate, calculated from the ingredients with the ANSES Ciqual food composition table, excluding sides and seasoning added to taste.

Instructions

  1. Mix the flour, yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl.
  2. Gradually add the lukewarm water while kneading until you get a soft, smooth dough.
  3. Cover and let rise for 1 hour in a warm spot until doubled in size.
  4. Divide the dough into 8 balls and flatten them into cakes about 1 cm thick.
  5. Heat the oil to 170 °C in a deep pan (a drop of dough should sizzle without browning too fast).
  6. Fry the cakes 2 to 3 minutes per side until nicely golden.
  7. Drain on paper towels and dust with powdered sugar or sugar before serving.

Variations and tips

Savory version. Add 1 extra teaspoon of fine salt and serve with fresh cheese or butter.
