Mix flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a large bowl.

Add warm water and mix until a dough forms.

Incorporate eggs and melted butter into the dough.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour until doubled in size.

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into small balls.

Let the dough balls rest for 15 minutes.

Heat cooking oil in a deep pan over medium heat until hot.

Fry the dough balls in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove the buns and drain on paper towels.

Serve warm as a snack or dessert.
