    Shape the pieces into balls and place them on parchment paper.

  8. 8

    Cover the dough balls with a cloth and let rest for another 30 minutes.

    Remove the donuts from the parchment paper and fry them over low heat in oil that is not too hot.

    Brown on both sides, transfer to a platter lined with paper towels, and let cool.
