STEP 1

First, whisk the egg with the warm milk before adding the instant yeast. Continue whisking until the yeast is completely dissolved. 

STEP 2

Next, add salt, flour, and sugar to the yeast and stir with a spatula until it is combined. Add butter and work it in until it is smooth before kneading for another two or three minutes on a lightly floured surface. Let the dough rise in an oiled bowl for a few hours. 

Step 3

To make the custard, dice the strawberries and mix them with two teaspoons of sugar. Set them aside and heat up the milk, cream, and salt in a small saucepan on medium heat. Once it simmers, turn it off. 

Step 4

In a different bowl, beat the sugar and egg yolks until it is pale yellow. Then, add the warm milk into the egg yolk a little at a time, stirring constantly. Whisk the cornstarch slurry and add it to the custard mixture. 

Step 5

Now, pour the custard into the saucepan and cook over medium-low heat until it is thick and glossy. This takes about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add the vanilla and butter. Mix well and add the diced strawberries. 

Step 6

Put the custard in a bowl and cover with plastic so the plastic touches the surface. Let it chill for 3 to 4 hours. While you wait, punch the dough and fold it a few times on a floured surface. 

Step 7

Make eight balls from the dough and put them on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cover in plastic and let them rest for 30 to 40 minutes. 

Step 8

Next, fill a deep pan with 2 inches of oil and cook over medium-low heat until it reaches 350 degrees F. Now, fry a few donuts at a time, cooking for 2 minutes on each side. Then, remove them with a slotted spoon and let them cool on a wire rack. 

Step 9

After the donuts are cool, poke a hole in the side of each one with a long object like a chopstick. Set a bowl of sugar nearby and coat them on each side. Then, put the custard into a piping bag and squeeze it into the hole, filling it all the way.
