Eggless Donuts–Deep Fried

Many foods make us drool and only a few recipes are drool worthy while they are being made. Visiting donut factory where you can see the donuts  being shaped, proofed, coming in line to get deep fried and turn beautifully golden and then jump into the silky sugar syrup is a treat to watch. And the best part of you getting to choose from the fresh hot ones – awwww that is so out of the world.. Warm and delicious donuts in hand.. So how much tastier will it be when you can do this factory at home… The answer is – even more exciting and even more delicious.. For this month’s Eggless baking group, Gayathri  has chosen Donuts suggested by Jayanthi and here is a sinfully delicious delicacy This recipe will give around 12 donuts.

  5. Sowmya, regarding ur q'n about the white part of watermelon, after having the red part you can see the white part, just peel the outer skin (that means the green part) and use the white part for making curries, that white part are tasteless so they works prefect for making curries with it.
