Heat plenty of sunflower oil for frying to 170º.

If you don't have a piping bag, take two dessert spoons, grease them with cold oil so the dough doesn't stick, shape round fritters and fry them in not-too-large batches, since the dough grows a lot when fried.

Keep moving the fritters while they fry so they puff up.

Drain the fritters on absorbent paper.
