Ingredients

• Servings: 16
• 3 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups canola oil for frying

Recipe

Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 20 mins Ready Time: 35 mins


• place eggs in a large mixing bowl, and beat until frothy. gradually beat in the flour and salt to make a soft dough. roll out the dough to be fairly thin, about 1/8 inch, and cut into 2 inch by 5 inch strips. cut a slit down the center of each strip, and twist so one end slides through the slit and makes a loop.
• heat 1 1/2 inches of oil in a deep skillet (or use a deep-fat fryer) over medium-high heat, 375 degrees f (190 degrees c).
• cook dough in small batches in preheated oil until golden brown. drain on paper towels. serve warm or at room temperature.
