Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Place eggs in a large mixing bowl, and beat until frothy. Gradually beat in the flour and salt to make a soft dough. Roll out the dough to be fairly thin, about 1/8 inch, and cut into 2-inch by 5-inch strips. Cut a slit down the center of each strip, and twist so one end slides through the slit and makes a loop.
  2. 2 Heat 1 ½ inches of oil in a deep skillet (or use a deep-fat fryer) to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  3. 3 Cook dough in small batches in preheated oil until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm or at room temperature.
