For frying donuts:

• cooking oil, as needed

2. Add egg yolk and pour cold milk into the bowl and mix them well again. Knead to make it a dough.
3. Add butter with the dough and mix it well once again. Knead it again and let it rest for about 10 minutes.

6. Now, pour oil into a pan and make it low hot.
7. Once it gets hot, drop a donut into the hot oil of the pan to check its temperature on low flame.
8. If the oil gets hot properly, drop all the donuts one by one into the hot oil of the pan on low flame.
9. Fry both sides of the donuts until they turn into golden on low flame.
10. After the donuts turn into golden, take them out on a plate with a strainer.
11. Now, mix the donuts with fine granulated sugar to make them look beautiful.
