1 Pinch of salt
2 extra large eggs, beaten
1 Oil for deep-frying

Syrup Ingredients

250ml sugar
250ml water
1 stick cassia

Step by step method

  1. Boil the milk in a saucepan and add the sugar and Stork Bake. Remove from the heat.
  2. In a large bowl mix together the flour, semolina and salt.
  3. Add the beaten eggs to the milk mixture, then add to the flour mixture and blend well.
  4. Place on a floured surface and knead to form a dough. Set aside for 2 - 3 hours.
