1) Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well (clean hands work great for the job).

2) Turn onto a floured board and knead for a few minutes.

3) Let rest

4) Roll out to about 1/2" thick and cut out with a doughnut cutter.

5) Heat about 4" oil (vegetable oil works fine, we use lard) to 360F

6) Fry 3 or 4 doughnuts at a time, turning when one side is browned - fry until both sides are nicely browned.

7) Drain on paper towels or on a paper bag. Makes about one dozen doughnuts.
