Cape point bollas!

I remember being in the second term of my pregnancy with my second eldest son (Waseem Achmad),and going for an outing with our good friends Fatima and Aghmat Siers (who had no kids then!), to Cape Point.It was a cold,rainy winter's morning and I remeber Fatima taking out a Tupperware(we never leave home without it!) , and offering the most perfect round bollas that I've ever seen!Taking the first bite is still etched in my memory (14 years later!),to put it in simple words..........The lekkerest bollas I've ever eaten , yes ever, and no matter how I try it still doesnt beet my friend Fatima's sweet ,tasty bollas!ladies this is really yummy stuff ,let me know how your's came!

Recipe:
3 tablespoons butter (melted)
1/2 cup sugar (slightly more)
2 eggs beaten
4 cups self rising flour(Sifted)
1 cup milk (I prefer buttermilk)
5ml vanilla essence
grated nutmeg
pinch salt

Method:
Melt butter add the sugar and beat till fluffy.Add the eggs till creamy ,sift the flour and salt , grated nutmeg and add to the mixture .Mix through with spoon then add vanilla essence and milk.Mix through thoroughly ,mixture should be soft and slightly stiff, if you find it too stiff you may add some more milk.Fry off in medium to slow oil,put in about a heaped teaspoon of batter at a time in the oil.Syrup as you would doughnuts but do not drench the bollas into the syrup!This is a great after supper "something lekker" snack ,so ....................Enjoy!
