Ingredients
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 2 T yeast (I use active dry yeast, but this recipe works with quick/instant yeast too)
- 1 T sugar
- 1 1/2 cup warm milk
- 2 tsp salt
- 4-5 cups flour
Instructions
- In a large bowl or mixer, add warm water, yeast, and sugar. Give it a brief mix then cover with a lid or a clean dish towel and let the yeast “poof” (dissolve) for about 10 minutes.
- Add the milk, salt, and mix together. Add the flour and mix one cup at a time, mixing/kneading well in between each addition of flour. Be careful not to add too much flour. There will be enough flour when the dough pulls away from the bowl and is elastic and slightly tacky. Knead for 5 minutes in a mixer or 10 minutes by hand.
- Cover and let rise for 15-30 minutes. Roll dough into a large flat rectangle and cut into 3-inch squares using a pizza cutter.
- In a frying pan, heat up some oil (can use avocado oil, coconut oil, or vegetable oil) and insert a wooden spoon into the oil. When the oil bubbles against the wooden spoon, you know the oil is hot enough. Add the dough into the frying pan and fry on each side until it is golden brown.
