Heat 1-2 inches of oil in a large saucepan with high sides over medium heat. Test a small piece of batter first to see if the temperature is right. It should sizzle, but not furiously, and it should not drop to the bottom of the pan.

When the oil is ready, drop 4-5 generous spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil and fry, turning once, until golden brown.
9
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle immediately with salt, then repeat with the remaining batter.
