Bring water, butter and salt to a boil in a 2 quart saucepan. When the butter is melted, reduce the heat and dump the flour all at once into the pot. Using a wooden spoon, beat quickly and thoroughly until the dough leaves the sides of the pan. Remove the pan from heat and allow dough to cool to almost room temp. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well so the batter is smooth after each egg is added. Deep fry rounded teaspoonfuls or walnut-sized balls until golden, making sure the centre is cooked. Drain on paper towels then dip in cinnamon/sugar mixture.

Show more commentsWe serve the around Xmas time, I usually like to make a syrup made up of sugar water lemon peel and 2 cinimon sticks, let it boil till it looks like a nice syrup, use the quantity of water and sugar you like. Drizzle a little over the Sonhos, and set the rest aside in a serving bolw.
