Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled medium bowl.

Cover and prove in a warm place for 1 hour until doubled in size.

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface.

Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces, approx. 80g each.

Add Ingredients 3 (oil) into the frying pan.

Heat the frying pan to 180ºC.

Working in batches, carefully transfer a few of the doughnuts from the work surface into the frying pan.

Fry each side of doughnuts for about 3 minutes until golden.

Remove the cooked doughnuts from the pan.

Transfer to the plate lined with paper towel.

Repeat this process with the remaining dough.

Add Ingredients 4 (chocolate, butter), into a heatproof bowl.

Place the bowl over a small saucepan of simmering water.

Stir slowly and continuously until melted and well combined, then remove from the heat.

While the machine is running, gradually pour the sugar syrup into the egg whites.

Mix on speed 6 for 3 minutes.

Tip: When pouring the hot sugar into the egg whites, keep the stream of liquid as close to the side of the bowl as possible.

This will stop it splashing and allows the syrup to cool slightly before it hits the egg whites.

Transfer the meringue to a piping bag fitted with an open star nozzle.

Pipe a swirl of meringue on top of each doughnut.

Use a domestic blow torch to finish the meringue topping.
