Waiting for a cook
Comoros
Donas are the Comorian ring doughnuts: a cake-like dough of flour, eggs, sweetened condensed milk, butter or oil and ground cardamom, raised with baking powder rather than yeast, cut into rings, fried golden and rolled in sugar or grated coconut. The name comes from the English "doughnut", but the cardamom and the condensed milk make them the islands' own. They are made in big batches for Ramadan, weddings and family visits, and keep well in a tin.
The draft was written from 3 published sources and holds 10 ingredients and 8 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
