Sprinkle the table with flour and roll the dough into a layer 3 mm thick on it. Cut the dough into rectangles measuring approximately 5x8 cm. With a knife, make an incision in each rectangle and twist it twice.



Prepare the frying pan. Pour in a lot of vegetable oil so that it covers most of the fungus. Heat the oil well. Fry the pieces of dough over medium heat on both sides under the closed lid. Crunchy firewood put on a colander, and let drain off excess fat.



Ready cookies beautifully lay out on a large dish and sprinkle with powdered sugar.



Bon Appetit!
