Coquetes fregides

Ingredients for 15 coquetes:  

• 250 ml water. 
• 500 g flour.
• 25 g fresh yeast.
• Salt.
• 125 ml olive oil.
• Frying oil, such as sunflower.

Instructions (aprox. 2 hours) 

• Temper the water, mix it with the fresh yeast and add the olive oil. Stir.
• Mix the flour with the salt and knead adding the wet ingredients until the dough doesn't stick on your hands.
• Leave the dough covered with a cloth until it grows and doubles its volume (aprox. 1 hour).
• With your hands soaked in oil, make small balls of dough and flatten them in order to give them the traditional coquetes' shape.
• When the frying oil is hot, fry the coquetes one by one, making a hole in the middle so they don't shrink and lose their shape.
• Leave on a dish covered with kitchen paper to remove any excess of oil.
• Serve them with sugar, salt or any kind of product such as cold cuts.
