- Vegetable oil for frying
- 2 cups of sugar

Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1/2 cup of unsalted butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce the heat to low and add 1 cup of all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Stir constantly until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan. Remove from heat and let it cool for 5 minutes.
- Add 4 eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and shiny.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot to 375°F (190°C). Fill a pastry bag with the dough and pipe 3-inch long strips into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, then remove and drain on paper towels.

- Dip the fried dough strips into the hot syrup, turning to coat evenly. Let them soak for a few minutes, then remove and place on a serving platter.
- Allow the tulumba to cool before serving. Enjoy this delicious Turkish dessert!
Tulumba, a popular Turkish dessert, has a rich history dating back to the Ottoman Empire. This sweet treat is made from fried dough soaked in syrup, resulting in a crispy exterior and a moist, sweet interior. It is often compared to churros or éclairs. Chefs in Istanbul and other regions of Turkey have perfected the art of making tulumba, ensuring that it is light, airy, and perfectly sweet. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in traditional Turkish bakeries and restaurants. The key to a great tulumba lies in achieving the right balance of crispiness and syrupy sweetness.
