Lokma, a beloved street dessert, is made by deep-frying small round pieces of yeasted dough in hot oil and dipping them in warm syrup while still hot. Crisp outside and light inside, it stays fresh for a long time even after cooling.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Activate the yeast

10 min

Add the fresh yeast and sugar to lukewarm water, cover, and let it foam for 10 minutes.

2

Prepare the dough

45 min

Add the flour and salt and mix by hand into a soft, pourable dough; cover and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes.

3

Prepare the syrup

10 min

Boil the sugar and water, add the lemon juice, boil for another 5 minutes, then set aside to cool.

4

Shape and fry

20 min

Wetting your hands, pinch off walnut-sized pieces of dough and drop them into hot oil, frying until golden brown.

5

Dip in syrup

5 min

Dip the hot fried lokma into the cold syrup and let them soak up the syrup thoroughly.

Reminder

Important: Wet your hands generously while shaping the dough by hand, or it will stick and won't form a smooth ball. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten).

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Dropping the lokma into the syrup right after frying while still hot lets them absorb the syrup much better and keeps their texture softer.
