Notes:
- If the dough is sticky that it sticks to your fingertips, you need to add a little flour 1 – 2 tablespoon of flour and knead for 1 Minute.
1st Rise:
- Divide the dough into two equal portions. Shape each one into a smooth ball. Coat with oil then cover with cling film. Rest the dough for 2-4 hours at room temperature. Or, keep it in the fridge overnight. The next morning, wait for at least 1 hour until it comes back to room temperature.
Shape the dough
- Before handling the dough, start heating up the oil for deep frying.
- Transfer the dough pieces onto the work surface, lightly flour the top side of the dough. Use your hands to flatten each piece into a rectangle shape (about 10×25 cm/4×10 inch). Remember not to knead it again but handle it gently.
- Lightly dust the dough with flour to prevent sticking. Then cut each piece into 10 equal strips (1 inch wide). Stack strip on top of another. Press the center with a chopstick lengthways to stick them together. Repeat for all.
- Stack strip on top of another. Press the center with a chopstick lengthways to stick them together. Repeat for all. Hold the two ends of each piece, and gently stretch the dough to a 9-inch long rope.
- Once the oil reaches 200°, carefully lower the stretched dough into the oil. When it floats on the oil surface, using a long chopsticks or tong quickly roll the dough in a continuous motion for about a minute. The youtiao is done once they turn light golden brown.
