How do i prepare it?
- For the syrup, boil water and sugar and add lemon juice
- Let it boil for 5-10 minutes more and let it cold
- Meanwhile start preparing dough by putting water and butter in a pot
- Mix it well to melt butter in water
- When it boils, sift flour and add it into pot little by little
- Add salt and sugar and mix it fast with a wooden spoon
- You will have a non-sticky dough in about 10 minutes over low heat
- Take the pot from stove and let the dough cool down
- Break eggs into it one by one and mix with your hands
- Add in starch and semolina and continue mixing with hands until you have a creamy dough
- Fill a frying pan with oil
- Fill the dough into a piping bag with a star nozzle
- Squeeze dough pieces into oil when it is still cold
- Let them double size over medium heat, the slower they are fried, the crunchier they are
- When they are fried, transfer them into cold syrup
- Wait them in syrup for 1-2 minutes and take them with a slotted spoon
- Before frying the rest of dough, let the frying oil cold and repeat the same steps
