In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt to combine.
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the egg lightly, then add the milk and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
Gradually whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, ensuring a smooth and lump-free batter. Set aside for 5-10 minutes to rest.
In a deep, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the oil to 375Β°F (190Β°C) using a thermometer to monitor the temperature.
Attach your rosette iron to its handle and submerge it in the hot oil for 30 seconds to preheat.
Carefully dip the heated rosette iron into the batter so the batter clings to the edges but does not cover the top of the iron. Let any excess batter drip off.
Submerge the coated rosette iron back into the hot oil. Fry for 20-30 seconds or until the batter puffs and turns golden brown. The rosette should naturally release from the iron during frying; if it doesnβt, gently nudge it with a skewer or fork.
Flip the rosette if needed and fry for an additional 10-15 seconds to ensure even browning. Use a slotted spoon or tongs to carefully transfer the rosette to a paper towel-lined plate for draining.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, ensuring the rosette iron is always reheated in the oil before dipping into the batter.
Once the rosettes are cool, generously dust them with powdered sugar before serving.
