Fried fruit, also known as fried sesame leaves, fried deep-fried noodle cake, which is cut into various shapes and then fried. I don't know whether it belongs to our Xi'an specialties or not, but it is a must-have food for Chinese New Year since I was a child.

At that time, the family houses were all bungalows, and I always loved to run to the east and the west, so I learned several kinds of fruit shapes from my neighbors. After the twenty-third of the lunar month, when the family began to prepare for the New Year's goods, Dad always had to plan to fry two large pots of fruit, a pot of salty, a pot of sweet, every time it is Dad and the noodles, I and my mother pinched. When I was a child, the lack of supplies, only on New Year's Eve can eat fried fruit, now to a well-off society, but also to pay attention to the healthy life, eat less fried food anyway, just a few days a year to eat, high calorie on the high bar.

Tips

1. In fact, I usually do not intentionally weigh ingredients, this time I thought of creating a recipe, deliberately take out the kitchen scale, only to find that the scale is broken? So all the weights in the recipe are my estimates?

2. The noodles and a little harder, so that it is easy to shape, but in the concave shape of the time to be a little bit of effort to pinch a little bit, so as not to enter the frying pan after the loosening of the open, and all the connecting parts of the pinch can also make the skin thinner, frying the other parts of the frying is not so much as the other parts of the frying of the paste, connecting the part is not yet cooked.

3. After making the shape, try to dry it for some more time, one can be better shaped, and the other one can save oil when frying.

4. The oil temperature is not too high, the whole medium-low fire, do not add too much at a time, so as not to break the arms and legs when frying affect the image.

5. Thoroughly cooled before bagging or cover.

6. Fried food should not be eaten more.

7. The cover picture was made with spinach juice and carrot juice and noodles a few years ago, and after deep frying, the colors are not so bright, so I don't think it's too good to use colored noodles.

8. What other questions do you all have let's discuss it together.
