Step 1

To a mixing bowl, add all dry ingredients. Mix to incorporate.

Step 2

Make a well in the middle of the bowl, add milk, beaten eggs and melted butter.

Step 3

Using a spatula, bring the dough together. When it is too tough for you to handle, use your hands to knead until a dough is formed. Let it rest for 10minutes.

Step 4

Cut dough into 4 equal parts. Using a rolling pin, flatten each to about ¼ inch thick. In order to make squares, cut vertical lines from one end to another, followed by horizontal lines. Watch video to see the step by step method.

Step 5

Preheat oil in a deep pot on medium. It is important to use a deep pot, so that the foam on the surface of the chin chin does not overflow out of the pot.

Step 6

Carry out the floating test by dropping one of the squares into the oil. If it floats immediately, then the oil is ready. Add the rest. Do not choke the oil with so much chin chin, else you risk having your delicious snack soaked in oil.

Step 7

Once the oil starts foaming, don't take your eyes off . Use a plastic slotted spoon to check if the chin chin is golden in colour. This happens in just under 5minutes. At this point, take it out and let the oil drip on a paper towel.

Step 8

Store in a jar with a tight lid.
