Method

  1. Whisking the egg and sugar

    Whisk the egg with the sugar until the mixture is pale and thick.

    2 min
  2. Adding the liquids

    Add the lemon flavouring and the kefir, then mix thoroughly.

    3 min
  3. Folding in the dry ingredients

    Gently fold the flour and baking powder into the mixture, taking care not to deflate the dough.

    2 min
  4. Stirring in the raisins

    Mix the raisins into the dough so that they are evenly distributed throughout.

    2 min
  5. Heating the oil

    Heat the oil to 180 °C so that the balls brown quickly on the outside without remaining raw in the middle.

    5 min
  6. Frying

    Drop small spoonfuls of dough into the oil and fry for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.

    15 min
  7. Draining

    Transfer the fried balls to kitchen paper to soak up any excess fat.

    2 min
  8. Serving

    Serve warm with coffee or milk, dusted with sugar or drizzled with honey. They are also delicious cold.
