So every year my mom and I go to the Aloha Festival in SF in Aug. And every year we stand in line like crazy people for at least 30 min. to get tasty malasadas. (kinda like a donut) We were craving them the other day and my mom thought that we should find a recipe and try it out. We did and they were so tasty!
Very sticky dough
In the pot frying:
Tasty Goodness:
Gotta coat them with sugar!:
They're super easy to make and I suggest maybe doing it with someone since they cook really fast. And they need to be coated with sugar when they're still warm.
Here's the recipe if anyone's interested.
"A yeast doughnut of Portuguese origins that is very popular in Hawaii, malasadas are rich with eggs, butter and milk. Deep-fried, then coated with plain sugar, they make an irresistible treat."
INGREDIENTS:
1 (.25 ounce) package active
dry yeast
1 teaspoon white sugar
1/4 cup warm water (110
degrees F/45 degrees C)
6 eggs
6 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup evaporated milk
1 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
2 quarts vegetable oil for frying
2 cups white sugar
DIRECTIONS:
1. Dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in 1/4 cup warm water; set aside. 2. In small bowl, beat eggs until thick. 3. Put flour in large bowl, making a well in the center. Into the well add yeast, eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, melted butter, milk, 1 cup water, and salt. Beat thoroughly to form a soft, smooth dough. Cover, let dough rise until doubled. 4. Heat oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Drop dough by big teaspoonfuls into oil, fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels, shake in a bag of sugar to coat, and serve hot.**Taken from allrecipes.com**
