Sufganiyot in a Minute

Sufganiyot (plural), sufganiyah (singular); are a type of deep-fried doughnut that is traditionally eaten by Jewish people during Hanukkah, along with other fried foods, to commemorate the miracle of the oil in the Temple.  They are typically round and filled with jelly or other sweet fillings, and they are often dusted with powdered sugar. Sufganiyot are deep-fried until they are golden brown and have a light, fluffy texture.

The practice of eating fried foods during Hanukkah is a symbolic way of celebrating the miracle of the oil, where a small amount of oil miraculously lasted for eight days in the rededication of the Temple in Jerusalem.
