Instructions to make Beignets:
- In a bowl, add in water and yeast. - - Stir to dissolve the yeast. - - Set aside for 5 mins. - - After 5 mins, the yeast mixture should become foamy.
- Add in eggs and milk. - - Lightly whisk to combine well. - - In a large mixing bowl, add flour, sugar, salt and butter. - - Lightly stir to combine well. - - Create a well in the middle.
- Add the yeast mixture into the well gradually while still mixing. - - Mix to combine well or until it comes together as a dough. - - Knead the dough inside the bowl until all the nooks and crannies of flour is kneaded into the dough, about 5 mins.
- The dough should be very tacky. - - Transfer the dough out onto a working surface and continue kneading for another 5 to 8 mins until smooth and slightly tacky. It should pass the "window-pane" test. - - If the dough is too dry, add in water, 1 TBSP at a time. If the dough is too sticky, add in flour, 1 TBSP at a time.
- Generously grease the bowl with butter.. - - Transfer the dough back to greased bowl. - - Cover with cling film and let rise for 2 hrs or until doubled in size. - - Punch down the dough to deflate the air.
- Divide the dough into halves. - - Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. - - Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a rectangular shape with a thickness of about 1/4 inch thick.
- Cover with a damp lint free kitchen towel and let it rise for 30 mins. - - It should have risen to about 1/2 inch thick and is light and fluffy. - - Using a pizza cutter, cut them into squares. - - Add oil into a dutch oven, about 2 inches in depth, over medium heat.
- To check if the temperature of the oil is ready, place a wooden chopstick into the oil. - - If bubbles start to form, the temperature is ready for frying.* - - Gently drop the dough into the oil away from you. - - Deep fry until golden brown on both sides.
- Remove from heat and drain off excess oil in a wire cooling rack or a plate lined with kitchen paper. - - Repeat the steps for the remaining dough. - - Transfer the beignets onto a serving plate. - - Lightly dust some icing sugar over the top. - - Serve with your favorite compote or jam.
As soon as the beignets puff up, use tongs or a kitchen spider to gently flip them over. Transfer the beignets to a wire rack to. Beignets only have a single rise, unlike doughnuts, which have a second rise after they are cut out. Instead, beignets go from the initial rise to cutting and frying in pretty quick succession.
