- Apply 1 tbsp of oil on the dough, cover it up with a muslin cloth or a strainer and let it rest for atleast 2 hours.
- After 2 hours (when the dough has doubled in its size) take it out on the flour dusted kitchen table and punch it 4-5 times to release the air.
- Take a portion of the dough and roll it in the shape of a chapati (round). Thickness should be about 1/2 inch.
- With the help of a cookie cutter or bowl (katori) cut the donuts and for inner circle use a pet bottle cap (before cutting the donuts dap the cookie cutter in dry flour to avoid sticking). Repeat the process with the rest of the dough.
- Let the donuts rest for atleast 5 minutes.
- In a pan fry all the donuts on medium low flame until they turn light golden brown. Take them out once done.
- In a double boiler melt the chocolate by continously stirring it.
- Once done dip the donuts in melted chocolate from one side (from the top). Cover all the donuts in the same way.
- Garnish the donuts with sprinkles.
- Your home-made donuts are ready. Enjoy!!
