  2. In a large bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, sugar, and instant yeast. Whisk to combine.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
  4. Transfer the dough to a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm area for 1.5 to 2 hours.
  5. Once risen, punch the dough down, roll it out to 1/4 inch thickness, and cut out donut shapes.
  6. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot to 170-180°C. Maintain this temperature for frying.
  7. Fry the donuts in batches for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown, then drain on paper towels.
