Chuck-chuck with honey is very tasty! It also occupies a worthy place in Kazakh cuisine. When kneading the dough, the main thing is to achieve the correct consistency, in which the dough does not stick to the table and hands; when rolling and cutting, it requires minimal dusting with flour; and when the cut pieces of dough are lowered into hot oil, they increase well in size; after frying, they do not become hard, but turn out fragile and crumbly, like roasted nuts. A very tasty treat combined with honey and sugar syrup! Thank you, Irinyshka!
