Shortbread Fritters
1.
Prepare the ingredients you need, the first step is to make the noodles. Put the flour and aluminum-free fried dough stick leavening agent together, mix and stir well. Take another clean basin, put 1 egg, 5 grams of salt, 25 grams of oil in it, and stir evenly with chopsticks.
2.
Pour the mixture in step 1 into the flour, first stir until there is no dry flour, and then knead it into a slightly softer dough without excessive kneading, as the dough is smooth. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and let it sit aside for 30 minutes. If you want to eat in the morning, put the noodles in the refrigerator at night, take them out in the morning and wake up for half an hour, let the dough return to room temperature before continuing.
3.
Sprinkle the chopping board with flour to prevent stickiness. Take out the awake dough without kneading. Gently stretch the dough and divide it into 4 small doses or more, depending on the size of your chopping board.
4.
Take out a small piece of dough, cover the others with plastic wrap and set aside, arrange them into long strips, roll them out with a small rolling pin, the thickness is about 0.5cm, and the thickness should be even, then cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for 5 minutes.
5.
When the noodles wake up, use a knife or scraper to cut into small portions, uniform in size, length, and thickness.
6.
The two small pieces are superimposed on each other, and lightly press with a chopstick in the middle. Do not use too hard or too lightly. Master the strength. If you use too much force, the two fried dough sticks are too tight and will not be cooked easily. If you use too much force, they will be easy to separate.
7.
When the dough tiao is ready, let's fire! Pour the right amount of cooking oil into the pot. Unlike the large fried dough fritters sold at home, you can choose a shallow iron pan at home. The temperature is more stable and there is no coating. You can use it with confidence. The oil is heated to 60% hot, about 160 degrees. Pinch the ends of the thumb, index finger and middle finger with both hands and stretch them gently, but not too long, otherwise our frying pan will not fit. Put the dough sticks into the frying pan and fry them into golden brown and evenly colored. .
