Ingredients
Dough:
-
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
-
⅓ cup canola oil
-
1 large egg
-
3 tablespoons white sugar
-
½ teaspoon baking powder
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
¼ cup warm water
-
2 cups canola oil for frying
Simple Syrup:
-
½ cup white sugar
-
¼ cup water
-
¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
Directions
-
Make dough: Mix together flour, 1/3 cup canola oil, egg, sugar, baking powder, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. With the mixer on low speed, add warm water slowly and mix until a soft dough forms, 4 to 5 minutes. Let dough rest for 30 minutes.
-
Transfer dough to a clean work surface. Cut dough into about thirty 1-inch pieces. Press each piece onto the back of a fork and curl it out away from you to make shushumow.
-
Heat 2 cups oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan over medium heat. Working in batches, fry shushumow in hot oil, stirring slowly, until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
-
Make simple syrup: Combine sugar, water, and cardamom in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer until sugar is dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove from heat.
-
Stir shushumow gently into simple syrup until evenly coated. Transfer shushumow to a plate and let cool.
Recipe Tip
Dough can be curled over using a fork, a new and clean comb/hair pick, or a gnocchi maker.
