When I was a child, I was a child with rice noodles, peach crisps, cat ears... These are the ones that buy the most. Now the conditions are better, there are too many delicious foods to choose from in the New Year, but I especially miss the taste of my childhood. Recently, I especially want to eat cat ears. Because it is fried food, I am not very relieved to buy it outside, so I study and make it at home. After changing the recipe and method several times, you can finally make a double crisp and crispy fried cat ear. Below, I will share with you the specific practices.
Fried cat ears, also known in some places as fried pig ears. The reason why it is called this is mainly inseparable from the shape and appearance after frying. One by one, the ovals are curled, and they have a circle of patterns, like very small ears. It tastes sweet and crispy, the oil is overflowing, and the more you chew, the more delicious it tastes, which belongs to the delicious snacks that the elderly and children like.
When sharing the twist method with everyone before, many people mentioned that there is no baking soda or baking powder at home. So, in the production of this fried cat ear, specifically did not use these. Only the most common flour, eggs and sugar are used, which are all common ingredients in the home. The production process is also very simple, and the noodles, rolling, rolling, sliced, and fried can be done. I will also mention the problems that need to be noticed throughout the whole process, and everyone just needs to follow the steps to do it. I used a bowl of flour, three eggs, a little bit of sugar, and fried a large basin at a time, which was very affordable. Like the pro, before the New Year to fry some try it, full of childhood taste ~

Say a few more words
1. If you want to eat a little sweeter, you can add some sugar to the egg dough.
2. When rolling out the dough, be sure to roll it out thinner. The cat ears that are rolled out in this way have more texture.
3. When rolling out the dough, it is inevitable to sprinkle some dry flour in order to prevent stickiness. Where, when stacking two dough cakes, a thin layer of water should be brushed in the middle, so that the dough cakes will stick better and it is not easy to spread out when fried. Note that only a thin layer of water can be brushed, do not brush more.
4, the freshly rolled dough is relatively soft, when cutting, it is not easy to cut thin. Therefore, freeze for 1 hour and wait until the dough has hardened before cutting. This is the best way to go.
5, when frying, the oil temperature should not be too high. If you don't master it well, you can put a piece of cat ears into the pot first, and then put the other ones when the cat ears are floating up. Note that the whole process must be a small fire, otherwise the fried cat ears will be too heavy and look not very good.
