Steps on how to make chin chin

Mis en place: this means you should assemble all your ingredients on you work table.
A work table is where you work basically.
Get a large bowl: when I say get. Large bowl don’t get the one u use to wash clothes o🤣.
- I just mean a bowl large enough for your ingredients.
measure and sieve your flour
- Sieving is very important because you don’t want to have lumps in your mixture.
- Measure and add your butter
Rubbing-in: this just means rubbing your mixture to form a bread crumb appearance. I don’t mean add bread crumbs🤣.
Add your nutmeg. If it’s the hard one you are using not the powder. Grate half of it.
Add your baking soda
Add your sugar
mix well
Make a well in the center
Whisk your egg in a separate bowl
Add your egg
Add you water: I would advise you to add it little by little. You don’t want your mixture to be watery neither do you want it to be too hard
Knead : this just involves you massaging the dough. PS I punch mine sometimes🙈🙈
Rest your dough: you have finished stressing your dough. Great! It’s time you let it rest for like 1hr or 30minute
Sprinkle flour on a flat surface/tray/work table.
You do that your so the dough doesn’t stick to the table
cut some of your dough
Sprinkle flour on your rolling pin/bottle
Roll till it’s flat
Cut

Frying time

Heat your oil
Drop three chin chins in it
Watch to see if it turns very brown quickly , does it become black?, Does it take too long to become brown?
If it’s too black then d oil is too hot
Taking too long to get brown then it’s not hot enough
