Test the temperature of deep fat fryer oil with a small piece of bread or potato. If it crisps quickly, the oil is hot enough.
Never fill a chip pan more than a third full of oil.
Add the butter to the milk and stir until it melts in a saucepan. Add the flour and salt and beat until smooth. Cook, stirring constantly, until the dough leaves the sides of the pan; remove from the stove and blend in the sugar and eggs. Shape into small balls and fry in deep fat until dark brown. Note. This is similar to a cream puff recipe except they are baked. -----
