Russian Chuk Chuk
Ingredients:
4 Eggs
2 tablespoons Sugar
100g Icing Sugar
2 teaspoons Butter
1/3 teaspoon Salt
60ml Milk
500g Plain Flour
Vegetable Oil, for frying
For the syrup: 1 ½ cups Honey and 4 teaspoons Sugar
Method:
Blend eggs, sugar and butter. Add salt, milk and flour and knead until the mixture forms a smooth dough. Leave the dough to rest for 40 minutes, and then roll out finely and cut strips 2cm in length.
Place the honey and sugar in a saucepan over a moderate heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Continue to cook until the mixture thickens and turns an amber caramel colour.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the strips for about 5 minutes, until golden. Drain on kitchen paper.
Dip the strips into the syrup and arrange on a serving plate. Serve immediately.
