3
Knead the dough on a clean surface for 2–3 minutes until it becomes elastic and holds together without cracking.
4
Divide the dough into 12–16 equal portions and roll each portion between your palms into a small ball or oval shape.
5
Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan to 150°C (302°F), checking the temperature with a cooking thermometer or testing with a small piece of dough—it should sizzle immediately upon contact.
