贝奈特饼 Beignet

Beignet is actually the french version of doughnut usually made in the form of rectangular puffy pillows after fried. The texture is soft and chewy resembling our local version of fritters.

贝奈特饼是一种法式无孔甜甜圈。一般的造型都是一长方形为主，油炸出来就像浮肿的枕头而富有弹性的口感类似于油条。

The preparation is similar to doughnuts, once the dough is being fried it will be sprinkled with powdered sugar and best eaten fresh while hot.

贝奈特饼的制做方式和甜甜圈一样，都是使用油炸煮熟。一旦油炸离火后便会在饼的表面上撒上糖粉，最好是趁热及新鲜时候品尝。
