Chuck chuck with vodka

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make chak-chak with vodka? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Vodka is necessary to make the dough more loose. During the cooking process, all the alcohol will evaporate.

2. STEP 2

   

   To prepare the dough, combine eggs with sugar and salt. Beat them a little with a whisk until smooth.

3. STEP 3

   

   Then stir in the vodka.

4. STEP 4

   

   To knead the dough, it is convenient to use a wide bowl or do everything on the table. Sift the required amount of first grade flour through a sieve and pour 2/3 of the total amount into the bowl, making a well in it. Then add the egg mixture to the flour. Do not add all the flour at once. You may need a little more or less than indicated. Focus on the consistency of the finished dough.

5. STEP 5

   

   Start mixing the ingredients. It is convenient to use a wooden spatula at first, and then knead the dough with your hands. Add remaining flour if necessary. Knead the dough very thoroughly for 7-10 minutes.

6. STEP 6

   

   The finished dough will be quite stiff, but elastic and not sticky to your hands. Wrap the dough in cling film and leave it on the table for 20 minutes.

7. STEP 7

   

   The rested dough does not shrink when rolling and is easier to work with. Roll out the dough on a table lightly sprinkled with flour into a thin layer of 2-3 mm, and then cut it into thin strips 2-3 cm long and 2-3 mm wide.

8. STEP 8

   

   Mix the cut strips and leave them to lie on the table for 5 minutes so that they are slightly chapped.

9. STEP 9

   

   For frying, you can use dishes with a thick bottom, a cauldron or a saucepan. Heat vegetable oil until very hot. Fry the chopped dough in 3-4 batches until golden brown. Then remove it using a slotted spoon into a colander to allow excess oil to drain. The hotter the oil, the less it will be absorbed into the dough when frying. This means the dessert will not be very fatty.

10. STEP 10

    

    To fill, combine honey and sugar. Place on the fire and bring to a boil. Boil everything together for 1-2 minutes.

11. STEP 11

    

    Place the fried dough into a large bowl and pour over the hot honey mixture. Gently, trying not to break the pieces, mix it with a spatula.

12. STEP 12

    

    Place the warm mass on a flat dish and form a mound with wet hands. Press with your hands more tightly to form a small cake. Place the treat in the refrigerator for 2 hours to allow the syrup to harden.

13. STEP 13

    

    Cut the finished chak-chak into pieces and help yourself. Enjoy your tea!
