Fried dough sticks are the most popular breakfast item. Whether it is a vegetable market, a large supermarket, a small shop in a community, or a roadside stall, you can see fried dough sticks selling breakfast and morning meals everywhere. There are often queues. Fried dough sticks with soy milk is a classic breakfast. Qingdao people prefer a bowl of tofu. It would be better if there is a bowl of sweet foam (a Qingdao specialty snack, salty porridge). It only costs a few yuan to make a breakfast. It is economical and can be eaten hundreds of times. Never get tired of it. When I was a child, living conditions were relatively poor, so eating fried dough sticks was something I looked forward to. Nowadays, people love and worry about fried dough sticks. Everyone loves crispy fried dough sticks. At the same time, they are worried about absorbing too much fat and have various concerns about the oil and ingredients used in frying fried dough sticks.

The fried dough sticks are delicious and I want to make them myself. I have made them several times before without success. They were fried into dough sticks and easily burned. Some time ago, I saw people in the group frying fried dough sticks, which made me feel itchy. I couldn't bear to buy a bag of fried dough sticks powder. I tried it several times and the effect was good. The newly purchased Internet celebrity pot comes with a deep pot, which is good for hot pot and soup. Before I started frying fried dough sticks, I felt that this deep pot was good for making fried dough sticks. It was rectangular, deep enough, and had adjustable and constant temperature. After using it once, the effect was really good, and the operation was very simple. Let me show you how to fry fried dough sticks!

Materials

300 grams of Anxin Youtiao pre-mixed powder, one egg, 150 grams of water, appropriate amount of vegetable oil

Production process

1. There are only two kinds of ingredients for Anxin Youtiao, pre-mixed Youtiao powder, eggs, and water. Youtiao powder is premixed with flour added with baking soda and other leavening agents. You don't need to prepare baking soda and other ingredients every time you make youtiao. You can just follow the recipe on the packaging bag. It's very simple.

2. Mix eggs, flour, and water into a soft dough, knead it roughly until smooth, cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for more than 20 minutes. You don't need to knead the dough with your hands. Just use chopsticks to stir vigorously into a ball. If the dough is too sticky, add a little oil. There is no yeast in the dough and it will not expand like rising dough. The purpose of proofing is to make the dough chewy.

3. Take the dough out to the chopping board, sprinkle a little flour on the chopping board to prevent sticking, and use a rolling pin to roll it out into a long strip.

4. Use a knife to cut the dough into 1~2 cm wide noodles. I cut the noodles from the middle because the noodles need to be stretched before being put into the pot. Families rarely have large pots, and even if they do, they won't be used to fry fried dough sticks. How much oil do you need to put in?

5. Stack the 2 noodles together, press them in the middle with chopsticks, pinch the two ends and stretch them slightly for later use.

6. Lift the pot, pour in an appropriate amount of vegetable oil, I used peanut oil, and start heating the Xinsite multifunctional cooking pot at level 4.

7. When the indicator light goes out, put in the elongated noodles. The oil temperature in the picture is just right.

8. Use chopsticks to turn over frequently, fry until 2 sides are brown and then take it out.

9. The golden and fragrant homemade fried dough sticks are ready to eat. The peanut-fried fried dough sticks are really fragrant, soft and delicious.

With 5 pots, it’s a good deal. There are many colors to choose from.

Tips:

1. There is no yeast in the fried dough sticks pre-mixed powder. The purpose of proofing is to make the dough chewy and good. The operation can be elongated.

2. The oil temperature for frying fried dough sticks should not be too high. If the oil temperature is too high, the dough will be fried as soon as it is put in. The New Site multifunctional cooking pot will maintain a constant temperature once it reaches the temperature, making it really convenient to fry food. Moreover, it is more convenient to fry fried dough sticks in a rectangular deep pan. You don’t have to worry about the pan not being long enough and the fried dough sticks being fried too short.
