I remember eating this Cebuano/Bisaya doughnut (or maybe it can be called fried bread?) whenever I visited my maternal grandma’s home, about 50 kilometers south of Cebu City, Philippines.

I asked a favorite foodie and adopted mom of mine in Multiply – Mommy Loy – for permission to repost as I want to be able to access it if I make some in the future. I also want to thank Chelo for starting the binangkal ball rolling on this
Ingredients:
2 1/2 c. flour
1/4 tsp salt

2/3 c. water
2 tbsp oil
Sesame seeds
Directions:
1. Sift together dry ingredients.
2. Mix brown sugar, water and oil then add to the flour mixture.
3. Mix until its well-blended.
4. With a teaspoon, take small bits of batter (it depends on how big you want it to be), then roll in the sesame seeds.
5. Fry in deep hot fat until its golden-brown.
