Puff-puff recipe
Puff-puff is a popular Nigerian snack made from deep-fried dough. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to making soft and fluffy puff-puff.
Ingredients (for about 20 puff-puffs)
2 cups of all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons of dry yeast
½ cup of sugar (adjust to taste)
½ teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of nutmeg (optional, for flavor)
1¼ cups of warm water
Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
Step 1: Activate the Yeast
1. In a small bowl, mix the yeast with 2 tablespoons of warm water and a pinch of sugar.
2. Let it sit for about 5–10 minutes until it becomes foamy. This shows the yeast is active.
Step 2: Mix the Batter
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and nutmeg (if using).
2. Pour in the activated yeast mixture.
3. Gradually add the warm water while stirring continuously until you get a smooth, thick batter (not too watery).
4. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap.
5. Let the batter rise in a warm place for 45 minutes to 1 hour until it doubles in size.
Step 3: Fry the Puff-Puff
1. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan (about 3 inches deep) on medium heat.
2. Once the oil is hot (around 350°F/175°C), scoop small portions of the batter using your hand or a spoon and drop them into the oil.
3. Fry in batches without overcrowding the pan.
4. Stir occasionally and fry until golden brown on all sides (about 3–5 minutes per batch).
5. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy!
Serve warm with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or dip in chocolate, honey, or spicy pepper sauce.
