Notes: We used about 4 cups of oil. Dough doesn't get kneaded in the traditional sense; just stir it into a ragged ball, sprinkling with about 2 tablespoons extra flour. Our skillet was 10 skillet wide, 2 inches deep. You want the oil to be about 1 inch deep, and you'll need a deep fat candy thermometers toget an accurate temperature reading don't be shy about dusting the dough with flour as needed it quite soft and sticky.
