YOYOS
My Mummy pleaded with me to make these, her grandma used to make them and she hadn't had them in so long. I took one each for my neighbour and her daughter and they loved them, took them to school and my friends demolished them and it was a fight over the last one. These are a true kiwi recipe, out of the Edmonds cookbook

YOYOS (A TUNISIAN SWEET TREAT FOR ZWT-9)
I have always felt that doughnuts were something you bought at a bakery because they were just too labor-intensive to do otherwise. This recipe for Tunisian YoYos may well have changed my mind & I will be interested to know if other chefs feel as I do. The recipe was a little vague about times, saying "60 min plus rest time of 1 hr". So my division of times is a bit of guesswork based on recipe directions & does not include the 1 hr rest time. Enjoy!
