Leave a little space between each to allow browning and make it easier to turn each one over. 3. As each one browns on bottom, turn over and brown the other side. Do not rush the browning so the inside will have sufficient time to cook throughly. Medium to dark brown is best. 4. Remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain. Serve warm.
