Steps for Improved version of fried dough sticks

1
Melt the yeast in warm water, add salt and baking soda, and dissolve.
2
Place 250 grams of flour in a kneading basin and set aside.
3
Pour the dissolved liquid into the flour and add water while kneading.
4
Knead the dough into a smooth dough.
5
Cover with plastic wrap and let the dough wake for 30 minutes. After applying oil, knead evenly, and wake up 2-3 times again, 20 minutes each time.
6
Wait until the dough is fermented to twice its size and you are done.
7
If you want to know if the fermentation is good, you can grab the dough and see if there is a honeycomb inside.
8
Roll out the fermented dough into 0.5 cm thick slices and wake again for 15 minutes. You can sprinkle some flour on the chopping board when rolling.
9
Cut into strips 2 fingers wide.
10
Stack the two strips and press them in the middle with chopsticks; or twist them directly like I did to make them into a twist shape. Put more oil in the pan. On medium heat, when it is 50% hot, put the flour strips into the pan and use chopsticks to turn the flour constantly to avoid being burnt.
11
Fry the fried dough sticks until they are golden yellow, remove and drain the oil.Improved version of fried dough sticks Make Tips
1. The amount of water can be adjusted appropriately, or the water can be changed to milk.
2. Cutting strips and boiling oil in the pan can be carried out at the same time to avoid the cut flour strips sticking to the chopping board over time.
