  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 3/4 cups water

  4. PASTRY:.
  5. Heat the margarine in a saucepan, add the water and salt and bring to the boil.
  6. Reduce heat and add the flour at once.
  7. Stir the mixture constantly with a wooden spoon and continue until mixture leaves the sides of the pan and forms a ball.
  8. This should take 6 minutes, then remove pan from heat and set aside to cool.
  9. When cool, add the eggs and knead for approximately 10 minutes.
  10. Using a pastry bag with a large nozzle or a serrated spoon, put 7-8 pastries in a pan containing the heated olive oil.
  11. Start frying the pastry over low heat, increase heat when pastry puffs up a bit and fry until golden.
  12. Remove fried pastry with a perforated spoon, draining away the oil, then put into the syrup.
  13. Strain off the syrup, place tulumba on serving plate and serve when cool.
