- Warm the water in the microwave — it should be warm, not hot, no more than about 105°F (40°C). 2. Put the dry yeast in a bowl and pour the warm water over it. Leave it in a warm, draft-free spot for 7–10 minutes, until it foams. 3. Warm the milk in a saucepan to the same temperature, about 105°F (40°C). 4. In a mixer bowl, combine the egg, sugar, and butter — the butter should be softened but not melted (just take it out of the fridge half an hour ahead). Beat until smooth, then pour in the yeast mixture. 5. Switch the mixer to dough hooks. Add half the flour (sifted, even twice, is important). 6. Mix with the mixer for two minutes — you can knead by hand, but it takes longer. 7. Pour in the warm milk, add the rest of the flour, and keep mixing until smooth. The dough will be sticky but very soft. Mix about seven minutes with the mixer, or 15 minutes by hand. 8. Dust the work surface with flour, turn the dough out, gather it into a ball, and return it to the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm, draft-free spot for an hour. 9. Divide the dough into three parts. On a lightly floured surface, roll each out to about 1/4 inch (5 mm) thick — don't add too much flour, it will toughen the dough. 10. Cut out doughnuts with doughnut cutters (or a glass if you don't have them). 11. Pour the oil into a narrow, deep pan and heat it. To test it, drop in a small piece of dough — if it immediately sizzles and bubbles, it's ready. 12. Fry a couple of doughnuts at a time, staying right at the stove. They cook very fast, so flip them after about a minute. 13. Transfer the finished doughnuts to paper towels to drain, then decorate. The simplest option is a dusting of powdered sugar; a glaze makes them more festive. Either way, they're wonderfully delicious. Dig in!
