Chin-chin is a popular fried delicacy in West Africa. It's a flavorful and crunchy snack with a lot of crunch.
Despite the fact that chin chins are popular in Nigeria, they are not all made equal. Some are too sweet or bland, while others are a greasy mess.
I used to help my mum prepare chin-chin a lot during this fasting period (lent). We always looked forward to making this delectable snack during the Easter holidays.
I decided to make Chin-chin last Saturday; I already had the flour, so I went to the neighborhood store to collect the rest of the ingredients.
| Ingredients | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Flour | 2¹/2 cups |
| Baking powder | 1/2 teaspoon |
| Nutmeg | Pinch |
| Sugar | 1 small cup |
| Baking margarine | 1/2 cup |
| Water | 1 medium cup/ |
| Eggs (Optional) | 4 |
| Vegetable Oil | 1/2 litter |
Step 1: Combine flour, baking powder, and sugar in a mixing bowl. Mix in the margarine until it is well incorporated.
Step 2: Slowly pour in water until a dough develops that is moderately flexible but not sticky (do not add too much water at once)
Step 3: After rolling out the dough on a flat surface, cut into desired shapes.
Step 4: Sprinkle some flour on top so it won't be sticky while frying, now heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches a temperature of 350°F. Fry until golden brown one batch of prepared dough at a time.
Finally the Chin-chin is ready, serve with cold juice or wine. Kids can also take it to school has breakfast or lunch
