Bomboloni in a siphon

Method

  1. For the batter:
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, eggs, water, sugar, sunflower oil, baking powder and vanilla. Mix well until smooth. You can use an electric mixer or stand mixer to make this easier.
  3. Strain the batter:
  4. Pass through a sieve to remove lumps and achieve a smooth consistency.

Charge the siphon:

  1. Pour the strained batter into the siphon. Charge with a gas cartridge (usually N₂O) and shake well to incorporate the gas.

Fry the batter:

  1. Heat the oil in a deep saucepan to approximately 180°C (356°F). Dispense batter from the siphon into a ladle lightly greased with hot oil, then carefully lower into the hot oil. Fry the bomboloni until golden and puffed, approximately 2–3 minutes.

Coat with sugar:

  1. Remove the doughnuts with a slotted spoon and place on absorbent paper to remove excess oil. Immediately roll the bomboloni in sugar, coating all sides.

Serve:

  1. Serve the bomboloni while still warm. Enjoy plain or filled with custard, chocolate or jam, to taste.

Notes and tips

Tips:

Make sure the oil is at the correct temperature before frying the doughnuts to ensure even cooking. Personalise the batter with a pinch of salt or grated lemon zest for extra flavour. Use oven gloves and appropriate equipment to handle hot oil safely.

With this optimised recipe, your siphon doughnuts will be light, fluffy and irresistibly delicious. Enjoy!
