We were studying about Frying & therefore, Vetkoek (Cookery method: Shallow frying) & Koeksusters (Cookery method: Deep frying) was the most yummiest practical to have to practice these cookery methods.
The Vetkoek was made the non-traditional way (before any Afrikaaners jump in & say that my Vetkoeks don't look like Vetkoeks haha, kidding) - we made them to look like fat crumpets!
The Koeksusters do look like Koeksusters right? The only difference is that I decided to make cute, mini koeksusters; You could call them bite size. The picture below just shows their cuteness. I know I definitely made the right choice! :)
With Koeksusters, people make it different ways for example straight after the koeksuster has been deep fried, they dip it in hot syrup & serve or straight after it is deep fried, it is dunked in ICE COLD SYRUP & left there to suck up all the syrup and cool down. This process gets a lot of syrup into the actual koeksuster as the hotness of the koeksuster really absorbs all the ice cold syrup. This is the method we used & it was fun! & really tasty too!
