We start by preparing all the necessary ingredients for the recipe, ensuring that the cooking process will go smoothly. You will need 4 fresh eggs, 250 milliliters of natural yogurt, 150 grams of sugar, and 200 grams of flour. Also, don't forget about 1 teaspoon of baking soda, which will help achieve a fluffy texture in the dish.

The first step is to crack the eggs into a large bowl. Use a whisk or an electric mixer to beat them well until they become frothy and have a golden-yellow color. This will add air to the mixture, giving it a lighter texture. Then, add the yogurt and sugar. Continue to mix with the whisk until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture becomes homogeneous.

Once you have a uniform mixture, it's time to add the baking soda. It will react with the yogurt, creating bubbles of carbon dioxide that will make the dish rise nicely during frying. Mix well to ensure that the baking soda is evenly distributed in the mixture.

The next step is to gradually incorporate the flour. Add it little by little, constantly mixing to avoid lumps. The goal is to achieve a thicker dough, similar to that used for pound cake, which will provide stability and viscosity to the final dish. Once you have a homogeneous mixture, let it rest for about 10 minutes.

In the meantime, prepare the pan. Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. It is important that the oil is well heated before adding the dough, to achieve even and crispy frying. You can check the oil temperature by dropping a small amount of batter; if it rises to the surface and starts to sizzle, it's time to start frying.

Use a spoon or a ladle to take portions of the batter and carefully add them to the hot oil. Fry them on both sides until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Once they are ready, remove them to a paper towel to absorb the excess oil.

Serve them warm, possibly with a drizzle of honey, jam, or even dusted with sugar. These delicious treats are ideal for an energizing breakfast or a sweet snack during the day. Enjoy your meal!
