Critical Success Points

  • Sift dry ingredients to avoid lumps.
  • Dissolve honey in very hot water without boiling.
  • Add flour gradually to achieve the right consistency.
  • Let the balls rest 10 minutes before frying.
  • Fry at 180°C to obtain a golden crust without absorbing too much oil.

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oil can cause burns; handle with care.
  • Do not let the water boil with the honey to avoid splattering.
