This recipe proves you don’t need an oven to enjoy delicious, homemade bread. With just a few simple ingredients and a pot of boiling water, you can have fluffy, flavorful bread in no time.

Ingredients:

  • 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups warm milk (around 105°F)
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon dry yeast
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2.5-3 liters of water for boiling
  • 1 teaspoon salt for boiling water

Instructions:

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt.
  2. Activate the yeast: In a separate bowl, combine the warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the yeast is foamy and active.
  3. Mix the dough: Add the activated yeast mixture and oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. You can use a wooden spoon or your hands to mix.
  4. Knead the dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  5. First rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  6. Prepare the boiling water: While the dough is rising, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the teaspoon of salt to the water.
  7. Shape the dough: Once the dough has risen, divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a smooth ball.
  8. Boil the dough balls: Gently drop the dough balls into the boiling water. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are cooked through.
  9. Cool and serve: Remove the dough balls from the water with a slotted spoon and let them cool on a wire rack. Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, jam, or cheese.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, you can use olive oil instead of vegetable oil.
  • You can add herbs or spices to the dough for extra flavor.
  • If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • If the dough is too dry, add a little more warm milk, 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • You can also bake these bread balls in a preheated oven at 350°F for 15-20 minutes for a slightly crispier crust.

Crispy Delights: Oil-Free Fries Recipe for Perfect Crunch

Crispy Delights: Oil-Free Fries Recipe for Perfect Crunch

Creating crispy fries without using oil might seem like a challenge, but it’s definitely possible with the right technique. Here’s a method you can try:

Ingredients:

  • Potatoes (russet or Yukon Gold work well)
  • Salt
  • Seasonings of your choice (such as garlic powder, paprika, or herbs)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to a high temperature, around 425-450°F (220-230°C).
  2. Wash and peel the potatoes if desired. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Try to make the cuts as uniform as possible so they cook evenly.
  3. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for about 30 minutes. This step helps remove some of the starch from the potatoes, which can make them crispier.
  4. After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Removing excess moisture is crucial for achieving crispiness.
  5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup. Arrange the potato strips on the baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they’re not overcrowded. If they’re too close together, they’ll steam instead of crisping up.
  6. Sprinkle the potatoes with salt and any other seasonings you like. Toss them gently to coat evenly.
  7. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-30 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through the cooking time. Keep an eye on them towards the end to prevent burning.
  8. Once the fries are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

By following these steps, you can enjoy deliciously crispy fries without using any oil. Feel free to experiment with different seasonings to customize the flavor to your liking. Enjoy your guilt-free snack!
