  • Sieve refined flour into a bowl.
  • In a big mixing bowl, take refined flour along with salt, sugar, dry active yeast and butter.
  • Mix it well to combine everything together.
  • Now take lukewarm milk and by adding it into the flour in small portions to knead soft dough.
  • After 5 minutes, dough has become smooth and soft. Dust some dry flour on the rolling board and flatten the dough on it.
  • Roll it into a round circle of ½ or ¾ cm thick.
  • Cut donuts out of it with the help of a glass or bowl, donut cutter, or cookie cutter as i have used in video.
  • Now to give it the shape of a donut, take a bottle cap which has to be small in size and similarly press it firmly in between the circles so that it goes through the dough.
  • Cover and keep them aside for 1.5-2 hours so that they become puffy. Then they will be ready to get fried.
  • After 2 hours, donuts have puffed up and are ready to be fried. Heat enough oil in a wok for frying. Keep the oil medium hot for frying. Drop 1-2 donuts or as many as possible into the medium hot oil.
  • Flip their sides when they become slightly brown from beneath. Keep frying them until they turn golden brown in colour.
  • Now that the donuts have turned golden brown in colour. Then take them out on kitchen paper towel.

  • Take powdered sugar on a plate and dust the piping hot donuts with it.

  • Cook the chocolates until they attain running consistency. Keep stirring them continuously to avoid browning at the base. It can take around 20-25 minutes for melting them.
  • After 20-25 minutes, turn off the flame. Place the bowl on the wire rack. Let them cool down for a while so that they can be handled with hand. Keep stirring them with the spatula.
  • Now pick a donut and dip one side of it into any chocolate i.e. white or dark and let the excess chocolate fall off. Dip each donut likewise and place them on a plate.
