Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.
  • Deep frying. Fill the pan no more than a third full of oil, and never leave it on the heat unattended. Heat the oil only to the temperature the recipe needs; if it smokes, turn the heat off.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Dissolve the yeast in 3/4 cup of warm water. Stir in the flour, salt, sugar, and the egg yolk. Let the batter rest for 20 minutes.
  2. Heat the oil until it registers 350 on a thermometer. Dip slices into batter and deep fry until golden on both sides. Remove with slotted spoon and blot dry with paper towels. Serve immediately.
