    1. Combine the salt, sugar, yeast, and warm milk in a large bowl. Stir until the yeast dissolves.
    1. Add the flour and softened butter to the mixture. Knead the dough, then turn it out onto a floured surface. Knead until it's springy and soft, but no longer than 7 minutes.
    1. Return the dough to the bowl, cover it with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for an hour. It should at least triple in size.
    1. Turn the dough out and gently press it into a ball. Start making the rolls by pinching off small pieces of dough and shaping each into a roll.
    1. Arrange the rolls on a lightly oiled baking sheet or piece of parchment and let them rest for 15 minutes.
    1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large deep pot and fry the rolls for about half a minute per side. They should be golden on both sides.
    1. Transfer the rolls to a paper towel to drain off the excess oil.
    1. Dust generously with powdered sugar and serve!
  • Enjoy!
