BEIGNETS DE CARNAVAL

Steps:

• Dissolve the yeast in 1/2 cup warm water in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook. Stir in the flour, eggs, salt, granulated sugar, and the butter or margarine, and knead until you have the consistency of a smooth dough. Turn it out, clean and grease the bowl, and put dough back in. Allow dough to rest, covered, for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until doubled in volume. Punch down, and knead again.
• Roll out the dough with a rolling pin to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. With a sharp knife, cut the dough into roughly equal 2-inch triangles or rectangles. Allow to rise for 45 minutes.
• Heat about 2 inches of the oil to 375 degrees in a deep pan or a wok. Lower three or four pieces of the dough at a time into the hot oil, and fry until they are golden on both sides. Extract them with a slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar before serving.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add sugar, salt, eggs, evaporated milk, and blend well. Mix in 4 cups of the flour and beat until smooth. Add the shortening, and then the remaining 3 cups of flour. Cover and chill for up to 24 hours.
• Roll out dough 1/8 inch thick. Cut into 2 1/2 inch squares. Fry in 360 degree F (180 degrees C) hot oil. If beignets do not pop up, oil is not hot enough. Drain onto paper towels.
• Shake confectioners' sugar on hot beignets. Serve warm.

BEIGNETS

Steps:

• Mix together the yeast, flour, sugar and 1 tsp sea salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk together the evaporated milk and egg and tip into the bowl with the melted butter and 60ml just-boiled water. Knead on a medium speed for 2 mins in the stand mixer, or for 5 mins on a lightly floured work surface, until smooth. Shape the dough into a ball and put in a large, lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a damp tea towel and chill for 8-24 hrs.
• Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface into a roughly 20 x 25cm rectangle about 1cm thick. Cut into 20 x 5cm squares.
• Pour the oil into a deep stock pot or saucepan, so it is no deeper than one-third full. Or, use a deep-fat fryer. Heat the oil to 175C. Line a baking tray with kitchen paper. Fry the beignets in batches for 3 mins, turning occasionally with tongs, until puffed up and golden brown. Lift the beignets onto the paper to drain, then move to a wire rack, dust generously with icing sugar and serve warm.
