Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Whisk the milk, yeast and sugar in a large bowl and leave for 5 min until foamy.

  2. 2

    Add the egg, flour and salt. Stir for 2-3 min into a thick, sticky batter without lumps.

  3. 3

    Cover the bowl and leave in a warm place until doubled and bubbly, 45-60 min.

  4. 4

    Peel and core the apples and cut them into 1 cm (1/2 in) cubes. Fold them into the risen batter.

  5. 5

    Heat 3 tbsp of the oil in a large frying pan over medium-low heat.

  6. 6

    Dip a spoon in water so the batter will not stick, then drop heaped spoonfuls into the pan, leaving space between them. Flatten each slightly to about 7 cm (3 in) wide.

  7. 7

    Fry until deep golden underneath, about 3 min. Turn and fry the other side for 3 min, until the apple is soft when pierced.

  8. 8

    Drain on paper towels. Add more oil as needed and fry the rest of the batter.

  9. 9

    Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm.
