Step 3Whisk a whole egg but only use half the mixture

Step 4Pour the beer-milk-margarine mixture in the middle of the flour well, pour in half of the whisked egg mixture, and then the vanilla essence. Mix together really well.

Step 5Leave mixture, covered, in a warm place to prove for 30 minutes.

Step 6Knead dough and roll out into a "snake", pinch off bits and form small balls, maybe about the size of golfballs.
-
Step 7Heat the oil in a pot, fry the balls of dough slowly to ensure that they cook through. Once they are golden broan, remove carefully with a slotted spoon.

Step 8To make the syrup, place the 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water in a pot over a medium hot plate, keep stirring gently until the sugar has dissolved and the syrup thickens, pour the syrup over the doughnuts, decorate as desired.
