Introduction: Strawberry Bombs – irresistibly delicious and remarkably easy to prepare! These delightful treats are a must-try.
Ingredients:
- 300g (2 cups) flour
- 1 egg
- 45g (1/4 cup) sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 7g dry yeast
- 40g softened butter (1/4 cup)
- 140ml (3/5 cup) warm milk
For Garnish:
- Whipped cream
- Chopped strawberries
- Powdered sugar
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, combine sugar, yeast, and milk until the yeast dissolves.
- Whisk in the egg. Add the flour and salt, then use a spatula to start mixing the dough. Knead it by hand until it becomes stretchy.
- Incorporate the softened butter into the dough, kneading until completely combined.
- Shape the dough into a ball, cover it with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel, and let it rise for an hour.
- Divide the dough into eight pieces, forming each into a ball. Cover and let sit for 30 minutes.
- Flatten each ball slightly and reshape into a ball. Cover and let sit for an additional 30 minutes.
- Fry the balls in hot oil over low heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
- Allow them to cool, then slice them in half horizontally.
- Spread whipped cream and chopped strawberries on one half, sandwich with the other half, sprinkle with powdered sugar, and serve.
Tips:
- Ensure the oil is at the right temperature to fry the balls evenly without burning.
- Experiment with different fillings like chocolate spread or various fruits for a unique twist.
