GREEK DONUTS WITH HONEY



Greek Donuts with Honey image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup warm water, 110 to 115 degrees F
1/2 ounce active dry yeast (2 packets or 4 1/2 teaspoons)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup warm milk, 110 to 115 degrees F
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Canola oil, for frying
1 cup coarsely ground or chopped pistachios, for serving
1/2 cup honey
2 orange peels plus 1/2 cup fresh orange juice (from about 1 orange)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the donuts: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine the warm water, yeast and pinch of the sugar and whisk to combine. Let stand until the yeast is very foamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Next, add the flour, warm milk, olive oil, salt and remaining sugar and mix until a smooth batter forms, 2 to 3 minutes. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Set up your grill for even heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.
  • For the honey syrup: In the meantime, in a small saucepot on the grill, combine the honey, orange peels, orange juice, sugar, cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Bring to a strong simmer and stir to dissolve the sugar. Simmer for 15 minutes, then remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Heat 4 to 6 inches of canola oil to 350 degrees F.
  • When the batter is ready, dip a small ice cream scoop into the hot oil to coat, then scoop some of the batter out. Drop into the hot oil and repeat until the donuts are frying comfortably in an even layer. You may need to do this in 2 to 3 batches depending on the size of your pot so you do not overcrowd the pot. Fry until golden brown on all sides and puffed, about 2 minutes per side, using a spoon to flip them. Remove to a draining rack and repeat with the remaining batter.
  • After the donuts have drained of excess oil, transfer them to a serving platter. Pour the honey syrup all over and sprinkle with the pistachios.

Fried Greek honey puffs.

Provided by JOANNA

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Greek

Time 1h30m

Yield 25

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
½ cup warm milk
¼ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
⅓ cup butter, softened
3 eggs
4 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup honey
½ cup water
4 cups vegetable oil, or as needed
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water in a small bowl. The water should be no more than 100 degrees F (40 degrees C). Let stand for 5 minutes until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam. In a large bowl, mix the warm milk, sugar, and salt, and mix to dissolve. Pour the yeast mixture into the milk mixture, and stir to combine.
  • Beat in the butter, eggs, and flour until the mixture forms a smooth, soft dough. Cover the bowl, and let rise until doubled in bulk, about 30 minutes. Stir the dough well, cover, and let rise 30 more minutes.
  • Mix honey and 1/2 cup of water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Turn off the heat and let the honey syrup cool.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Oil should be about 2 inches deep.
  • Place a large table or soup spoon in a glass of water near the batter. Scoop up about 2 tablespoons of dough per puff with the wet spoon, drop it into the wet palm of your hand, and roll it back into the spoon to create a round shape. Do not overhandle the puffy, soft dough. Drop the dough balls into the hot oil in batches, wetting the spoon each time you make a dough ball. Fry in the hot oil until golden brown on the bottom, and roll them over to cook the other side, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Gently set the loukoumades aside to drain on paper towels.
  • Place the loukoumades on a baking sheet, drizzle them with honey syrup, and sprinkle with cinnamon. Serve warm.

  • To prepare this traditional loukoumades recipe, start by making the dough. In a bowl add the water, sugar and yeast. Stir with a whisk until the yeast dissolves completely and wait for 5 minutes. In a mixers bowl add the yeast mixture add the rest of the ingredients for the dough and whisk at high speed (for about 2 minutes) until the mixture becomes a smooth batter. (You could also use a hand whisk. Whisk until the mixture has no lumps).
  • Cover the bowl with some plastic wrap and let the dough rest in a warm place for at least 1 hour to rise.
  • Into a medium sized frying pan pour enough vegetable oil to deep fry the loukoumades. Heat the oil on a medium heat until hot. Test if the oil is hot enough by dipping in some of the dough for the loukoumades. If it sizzles the oil is ready. A more accurate way is to use a kitchen thermometer and measure the oil to be at 160C / 320F.
  • Dip a tablespoon in some oil, shake it a bit to remove any excess. It is best to dip the spoon in oil and not water. Dip your hand in the dough and using your palm, squeeze out a small portion of dough between your thumb and index finger, like you are making a fist. Using the spoon, grab the dough ball off your hand and let it drop in the hot oil. Repeat this procedure until the surface off the pan is comfortably filled. You should dip the spoon in the oil & shake off every time, so that the batter doesn’t stick on it.
