1/2 C very warm water
1/2 tsp sugar
2 packages of quick rising yeast
1 1/2 C hot milk
1 TB oil
3 tsp sugar
2 tsp salt
1/2 C cold water
4 1/2 C flour
Oil for frying
In a large deep frying pan, fill with about 3 inches of canola oil or vegetable oil and turn on to medium high heat.
Add together warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir and let sit until foamy (just a few minutes).
Add the following to the hot milk: oil, sugar, salt, and cold water. Then add 2 cups of flour to start. Gradually add until it is soft and kneadable--approximately 4 1/2 cups. Let set for 5-10 minutes and knead lightly. Roll out very thick on floured surface. Let stand another 5 minutes. Cut into squares or rectangles.
Slip the squares into the frying pan. They will go down into the oil and then pop back up to the top. Check underneath and when the bottoms are golden brown--turn them over. You will be able to tell when they are done they are golden brown color. Remove with slotted spoon and serve with butter, jam, honey or whatever!
