How to Make Sata Andagi Okinawan Doughnuts

  1. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accuracy.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup (120ml) milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and frothy.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly lumpy.
  5. Using a teaspoon or a small cookie scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of dough into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot.
  6. Fry for approximately 2-3 minutes per side, or until the Sata Andagi are golden brown and puffed up. They should float to the surface when cooked through.
  7. Remove the doughnuts with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack or plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
  8. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy the delightful taste of Okinawa! These are delicious warm or at room temperature.
