Fried fruit, also known as fried sesame leaves and fried dumplings, is to cut and knead dough pieces into various shapes and then fry them. I don't know if it belongs to our special snacks in Xi 'an, but it is a must-have food for Chinese New Year since childhood.

At that time, my family's courtyard was still a bungalow, and I always liked to run around the west, so I learned several kinds of fruit shapes from my neighbors. After the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, when the family began to prepare new year's goods, my father always wanted to fry two pots of fruit, one salty and the other sweet. Every time, my father made dough and I pinched it with my mother. When I was a child, I was short of materials, so I could only eat fried fruit during the Chinese New Year. Now, in a well-off society, I have to pay attention to a healthy life. Anyway, I will eat fried food for a few days a year, and the calories will be high.

Cut the large noodles into strips about 1cm wide, then fold them in half, with the opening facing upward (above), and then cut out thin noodles about 1cm away from the opening (below). Depending on the number of noodles, it is necessary to have a concave shape.

Tips

1. Actually, I don't weigh the ingredients deliberately. This time, I thought of creating a recipe and took out the kitchen scale specially, only to find that the scale was broken? So I estimated the weight in the recipe?

2. The dough is a little hard, so it is easy to set, but it needs to be pinched in concave molding to avoid loosening after entering the oil pan. Moreover, pinching the connecting parts can also make the dough thin, so that other parts will not be fried when frying, and the connecting parts are not ripe.

3. after shaping, dry it for as long as possible. first, it can be shaped better, and then it will save fuel when frying.

4. The oil temperature should not be too high, and the fire should be light all the time. Don't add too much at a time, so as not to break your arm and leg when frying, which will affect your image.

5. thoroughly cool before bagging or covering.

6. fried foods should not be eaten too much.

7. The cover picture was made of spinach juice and carrot juice and noodles a few years ago. After frying, the colors are not very bright, so I don't think it is suitable to use colored noodles.
