HOW TO MAKE PUFF PUFF

Keesha
Puff Puffs are definitely one of my favorite African snacks and I hope that you will enjoy them too. They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, plus they taste delicious with a hint of sweetness!

Ingredientes
  

  • 2 Cups Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 2 teaspoons Yeast
  • ¾ cup Sugar
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Water warm
  • ½ cup Oil for frying

Instrucciones
 

  • Add the flour, nutmeg, yeast, sugar, and salt to a large bowl, and mix them well.
  • Add warm water in small quantities and mix everything together until it has a nice texture. It should be thicker than pancake batter.
  • Cover the bowl and leave it to rest for around 60 minutes. I personally like to put it in the fridge for another hour which makes the Puff Puff fluffier and easier to drop into the oil afterward.
  • Check if the dough has risen sufficiently, you should see small air bubbles. It should be at least three times the size it was before.
  • Heat up the oil, make sure to use a pan which is deep enough. The oil must be hot but not too hot, around 170°C. Test if the oil is hot enough by putting a drop of batter into the oil. If it is not hot enough, the batter will sink and stay at the bottom of the pot rather than rising to the top.
  • Use your hands to start shaping the balls. Grab a little bit of mixture at time and drop it into the oil (please see on the video below) You can also use a spoon.
  • Let them fry for a few minutes until the color turns becomes golden brown. Often, they will turn around themselves, otherwise, make sure they turn brown on both sides.
  • Put some household paper on a plate before taking them out to absorb the oil.
