Homemade fried dough sticks

Overview

Fried dough sticks are a fried food that is loved by young and old alike. Although you can't eat too much, when your child wants to eat, it is at least hygienic to give him a meal. This is the first time I have made fried dough sticks. In fact, it has been almost three years since I last had fried dough sticks. I was still pregnant with my baby at the time, and I really couldn’t control my mouth at that time! Now children can try it. I feel that the first production was quite successful, and it can compete with those sold outside!

  5. Sprinkle flour on the chopping board and place the refrigerated dough on it. Sprinkle flour on the surface of the dough to prevent it from sticking. Gently roll it into a long strip about 6 or 7cm wide and 1cm thick.

  7. Take one strip and place it on top of the other, pressing it down with chopsticks in the middle. Then stretch it a little and pinch both ends tightly (I saw that the dough was quite wet and pressed very tightly, so the later batch did not pinch both ends tightly, and it fell apart when frying),

  8. When the oil temperature is high, put the fried dough sticks in (you can put one down first, if it can float immediately), after the dough floats, use chopsticks to repeatedly stir it to heat evenly.
