Instructions
Prepare the batter: Mix flour, water, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until you get a smooth and homogeneous batter.
Prepare the ice cream balls: Cut the sponge cake roll into 2 cm slices. Place three slices on plastic wrap, then place a large scoop of ice cream in the center. Cover with another slice of sponge cake and form a ball. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight.
Coat the ice cream balls: Remove the plastic wrap from the frozen ice cream ball. Dip it completely into the prepared batter.
Fry the ice cream balls: Heat vegetable oil to 170°-180°C. Fry the batter-coated ice cream ball until golden brown.
Serve: Remove from oil, drain, plate, and dust with powdered sugar. Serve immediately.
