In a large bowl, mix sugar, salt, egg, melted butter, and vanilla essence.
Gradually add the wheat flour and baking powder, alternating with warm water, to form a soft dough.
Knead the dough lightly until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1 cm thickness.
Cut out doughnut shapes using a doughnut cutter or two round cutters (one large, one small for the hole).
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan to 180°C (350°F).
Fry the doughnuts in batches until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Drain on paper towels, then sprinkle with sugar while still warm.
