How to prepare Fried Doughnut?

1. Warm milk over a low flame, add yeast and sugar and allow it to ferment for 1 hour.
2. Transfer maida to a bowl and make a small pit at its centre.
3. Add ingredients no: 4 to it, followed by the fermented milk mixture to prepare the batter.
4. Grease a plate and pour the batter into it.
5. Allow the batter to ferment (for 1-2 hours).
6. Spread it to a half-inch thickness and allow it to ferment (so that the layer rises slightly).
7. Now prepare doughnut shapes (similar to Uzhunnu Vada) and deep-fry in hot oil till golden brown.
8. Now dip doughnuts in chocolate sauce.
9.  To prepare the chocolate sauce, mix ingredients no: 6 in a bowl.
10. Using the double boiling method, immerse this bowl in boiling water and stir continuously until the sugar melts completely.
11.  Instead of dipping doughnuts in chocolate sauce, you can roll the hot doughnuts in powdered sugar mixed with a pinch of cinnamon.

Note: Beat together 1½ tablespoons each of egg white and lemon juice. Add 175 g of powdered sugar and mix until smooth. Pour the glaze over the doughnuts
