Fazuelos
Fazuelos is a traditional Moroccan pastry made by deep-frying thin strips of dough and then sprinkling them with powdered sugar or dipping them in honey or syrup.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup water
- Oil for frying
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Add the vegetable oil and gradually mix in the water to form a smooth dough. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it's elastic.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a thin rectangle on a floured surface.
- Using a knife or pastry cutter, cut the dough into strips about 1 inch wide and 5 inches long.
- Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or pot to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the dough strips in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side.
- Remove the Fazuelos from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Dust the Fazuelos with powdered sugar while they are still warm.
- Serve and enjoy!
