- 250 g icing sugar
- 4.5 tbsp lemon juice

And that's how it's done
Yeast dough
In a bowl, mix the flour with all the other ingredients up to and including the sodium bicarbonate. Add the butter, lemon zest, egg and milk, knead to form a soft, smooth dough, cover and leave to rise for approx. 1½ hrs. at room temperature until doubled in size.
To shape
Shape the dough into 12 balls, place on a sheet of baking paper, flatten into circles (each approx. 5.5 cm in diameter). Using a smooth nozzle (approx. 14 mm in diameter), make a hole in the centre of each circle, cover the dough rings and leave to rise for a further 30 mins.
To deep-fry
Fill a pot to 1/3 with oil and heat it to approx. 160°C. Slide the dough rings into the oil in batches using a slotted spoon, deep-fry for approx. 3 mins. each until light brown, turning once. Remove the doughnuts, drain on paper towels and leave to cool.
Pineapple doughnuts
Mix the icing sugar with ½ tsp of turmeric and the lemon juice. Dip 4 doughnuts in the icing and place on a rack.
Combine the rest of the icing with the remainder of the turmeric, transfer to a piping bag with a smooth nozzle (approx. 2 mm in diameter), use to decorate the pineapple doughnuts.
Strawberry doughnuts
Mix the icing sugar with ¾ tsp of raspberry powder and the lemon juice. Dip 4 doughnuts in the icing and place on a rack.
Combine the rest of the icing with the remainder of the raspberry powder, transfer to a piping bag with a smooth nozzle (approx. 2 mm in diameter), use to decorate the strawberry doughnuts.
