Campfire Donuts

Instructions:

• PREPARE THE DOUGH AT HOME:
• Melt the butter in a saucepan, add milk, sugar, cardamom and salt. Heat until the liquid is 37 degrees.
• Crumble the yeast into a bowl. Pour in the liquid and stir to dissolve the yeast.
• Add the egg and half of the flour. Stir well. Add the rest of the flour and knead well. If necessary, add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.
• Let the dough rise for about 30 minutes.
• Roll balls, flatten them a bit and press a hole with your finger. You may need flour on your hands.
• We think it's easiest to roll the donuts at home and take them out in a jar. But of course you can just bring the lump of dough in a jar and roll the donuts outdoors.
• BY THE CAMP FIRE:
• Burn for a while at the campfire so that embers form. Strong flames must be avoided so that the fire does not come into contact with the oil. Then the oil can ignite!
• Make sure you have a stable grill grate on which you place the frying pan.
• Pour vegetable oil, e.g. rapeseed oil, in, for example, Stabilotherm Jägarstekpanna- pan S2. Fill It just about 1 cm high.
• Heat the oil until it is sufficiently hot - which you can see by placing a piece of dough in the oil after a short while. If it starts to bubble/sizzle around the piece of dough, the oil is hot enough.
• Place 3-4 donuts carefully in the oil. Let the first side cook for about 2 minutes, but keep an eye, of course it can vary depending on the temperature of the oil.
• Turn and cook the other side until it is also golden. If necessary, turn once more so that they are cooked through.
• Lift off the donuts and place them in a bowl of sugar. Turn around.
• Enjoy crispy donuts with something good to drink!
