Combine all ingredients into a large mixing bowl to form dough.

Knead the dough on a floured surface, then return to mixing bowl.

Cover with a towel and let sit for 30 minutes. Heat oil in deep skillet over high heat.

Pull off a Tablespoon-size piece of the dough and roll into a ball.

Press down slightly, then drop carefully into oil and fry until golden brown.

Drain on paper towels. Repeat until all the dough is gone.

Optional: sprinkle with sugar or honey
