Chef Vinny Olivieri, of Uncle Giuseppe's Marketplace, shows News 12's Lily Stolzberg how to make zeppoles.

2 ½ cups water

3tbs sugar

5tsp yeast

1 ¼ cups flour

5 tsp salt

Step 1

Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

In a medium size bowl, combine the flour, water, yeast, salt and sugar. Set aside and let rise.

Step 3

Once dough mix has risen drop by tablespoons into the hot oil a few at a time. Zeppole will turn over by themselves. Fry until golden brown, about 3 or 4 minutes. Drain in a paper sack and dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve warm.
