Recipe For How To Make Puff Puff
I recently stumbled upon a very easy recipe for how to make Puff Puff. I guarantee you haven't seen anything like this before.
Equipment
- Bowl with tissue paper for draining the oil from the Puff Puff
- Bowl for storing the dough
- Clingfilm for covering the dough to make it rise
Ingredients
- 500 grams Flour (all purpose)
- 10 grams Yeast (Optional)
- 150 grams Sugar
- 1/2 Tbsp Salt
- Lukewarm water
- 3 Pieces Fresh pepper
- Vegetable oil
- Milk (Optional)
- Baking powder (Optional)
Instructions
- In a clean bowl, add water and add the teaspoon of sugar to it. Add the Yeast
- Pour the Yeast mixture into the flour and mix them together thoroughly until it forms a thick sticky white dough.
- Cover the dough with clingfilm for the next 60 mins or until it doubles in size. If you can't get your hands on a Clingfilm, then you can use a clean towel
- Next, pour the Vegetable oil into a frying pan. You'll need to pour enough because this snack needs to be deep fried. Ideally, the oil should be up to 4 inches deep.
- Wet your hand in water then scoop the dough and squeeze it in between your palm and turn your hand to face the oil so it drops freely
- Reduce the heat so the oil doesn't get too hot and burn the dough. Medium heat is best at this point so it can fry evenly.
- Turn the dough over and fry both sides till golden brown.
- Once it's done, take them out and drain excess oil in a plate lined with tissue paper.

Notes
- To test if the oil is hot enough, drop a tiny piece of the mixture into the oil. If it floats, it's hot enough. If it sinks, well. You have to leave it a while longer.
- If you like yours with Yeast, great. If you don't want Yeast however, be prepared to eat an almost flat deep-fried snack because it won't rise without Yeast. It's called "Puff Puff" for a reason right?
