Step 1
In a large bowl, mix 2 cups flour, 1 tbsp yeast, 2 tbsp sugar, and 0.5 tsp salt. Gradually add 0.75 cup warm water, stirring until a soft dough forms.
Step 2
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
Step 3
Heat 2 cups vegetable oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C). Pinch off small pieces of dough and roll into 1-inch balls.
Step 4
Fry the dough balls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown all over, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Step 5
Melt 0.5 cup chocolate chips in a microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over the warm donuts.
Step 6
Chop 0.25 cup pistachios and sprinkle over the chocolate. Serve warm or at room temperature.
