Sufganiyot are deep-fried jelly doughnuts that are traditionally eaten during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. The oil used to fry the doughnuts is reminiscent of the oil that miraculously burned—according to the Hanukkah story—in the ancient Temple in Jerusalem. For this recipe, the yeast dough is left to rise, then rolled and cut into circles and topped with spoonfuls of jelly or jam; another circle is laid on top and the edges are pressed to seal together. After an hour, it's time to fry the doughnuts and finish them off with a dusting of powdered sugar.
