Prepare a soft, sticky dough with flour, yeast, milk, egg, and butter; knead until elastic. → Allow the dough to rise until doubled, then roll it out and cut into donut shapes. → After a second brief rise, deep-fry the donuts at 160°C (320-330°F) until golden brown. → Prepare a simple glaze by whisking together melted butter, powdered sugar, and milk. → Dip the warm, fried donuts into the glaze and let them set on a wire rack before serving.

Analyzing cooking steps...
This dough is intentionally very soft and sticky, which is the secret to the melt-in-your-mouth texture. Avoid adding too much extra flour; instead, oil your hands and work surface to make kneading manageable.
A stand mixer with a dough hook can make the kneading process much easier.
The ideal frying temperature is crucial. Frying at a slightly lower temperature of 160°C (320-330°F) ensures the donuts cook through evenly and develop a soft crust rather than a crispy one.
Glaze the donuts while they are still warm. This helps the glaze melt slightly and create a thin, even coating that sets perfectly.
These donuts are best enjoyed fresh on the day they are made. To refresh leftovers, microwave them for about 30 seconds.
