PUFF PUFF
Puff puff is West Africa's most popular form of fried dough. This cinnamon-sugar covered Nigerian treat is best eaten right out of the oil.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, milk, and vanilla bean paste until well combined and smooth. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking powder, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Gently fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture with a silicone spatula until you have a thick, smooth batter. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
- Fill a medium pot with 3 inches canola oil. Heat over medium heat to 350°F.
- While the oil heats, stir together the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Using a #30 (2½ tablespoon) cookie scoop or 2 large spoons, carefully drop a few balls of batter into the hot oil, being careful not to crowd the pot-the balls will puff up as the batter cooks. Fry for 3 to 4 minutes, then flip the puff puff and fry for another 3 minutes. They should be evenly and deeply golden brown, smooth, and light.
- Remove the puff puff from the oil and immediately toss with cinnamon sugar. Serve right away.

Steps:
- Combine the yeast and warm water in a small bowl and let sit until the yeast starts to dissolve, about 5 minutes.
- Place the flour in a large bowl. Mix the yeast and water mixture into the flour with a wooden spoon until smooth. Stir in the sugar, vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon salt, and then cover with plastic wrap, placing the wrap directly on the dough. Set aside in a warm place and let rise for 1 hour.
- Bring 6 cups water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and add the fish. Poach the fish in the simmering liquid until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the fish from the water and set aside in a medium bowl. When the fish has cooled, use a fork to break apart the fish.
- Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil to a medium skillet over medium heat and saute the onions until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and a pinch of freshly ground pepper and cook for 5 minutes. Add the fish to the skillet and stir to fully incorporate, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons more olive oil if needed to keep the mixture from becoming dry. Cook for another 3 minutes and then turn off the heat.
- Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil (about 8 cups) to 375 degrees F in a wide heavy pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, carefully add the gateau batter to the oil with a 2-ounce ice cream scoop, turning over frequently until browned, about 2 1/2 minutes per batch. Transfer the gateau to paper towels to drain.
- Spoon the mackerel into a serving dish and serve with the gateau.
