In a medium size bowl combine the yeast, sugar and 125ml warm water

Combine well and let sit for approximately 5 minutes – you should see some bubbling on the surface, if you don’t, your yeast may not be active and your dough may not rise

In a large bowl stir together the flour and salt. Using 400g of this mixture, add350ml water and the yeast-sugar-warm-water mixture

Using a hand-held mixture, mix till well combined

Check the consistency of your dough; it should not be too thick or too runny – see

video. If it’s too runny, add more flour. If it’s too thick add, more water.

Allow dough to rest, covered with cling film, for approximately 60 minutes

After your dough has rested, heat approximately 2cm of oil in a frying pan and drop heaped tablespoons of dough into the hot oil

Repeat to add as many tiganites as you can in the pan without it being over-crowded - your tiganites should be approximately the size of a playing card

Fry for approximately 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through

Transfer your fried tiganites to a paper towel lined dish and repeat with the rest of

your dough

Serve warm, topped with plenty of honey.
