Step 1
Mix flour, yeast, salt, and 0.75 cup warm water in a bowl until shaggy. Knead 2 minutes by hand until smooth and sticky.
Step 2
Let dough rest in a warm spot for 10 minutes until puffy. (While resting, melt butter in a small bowl with minced garlic.)
Step 3
Heat frying oil to 350°F in a heavy skillet or pot. If no thermometer, flick water—it should sizzle immediately.
Step 4
Tear dough into 8 pieces. Stretch each into a thin oval, then carefully slide into hot oil. Fry until golden brown and puffy, ~2 minutes per side.
Step 5
Remove lángos with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Immediately brush generously with garlic butter.
Step 6
Sprinkle with fresh dill and sea salt. Serve hot with sour cream for dipping.
