Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup water
1 cup milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 teaspoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups vegetable oil for frying

Directions

Combine flour, water, milk, egg, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix until smooth.
Pour oil into a deep skillet or pot and heat over medium-high heat to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C).
Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil. Fry, turning once, until they rise to the surface and turn golden brown and puffy, 3 to 5 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.

We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.
