Cakwe, also known as Chinese crullers, are a popular snack in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. They are deep-fried dough sticks that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
To make cakwe, a simple dough is made using flour, yeast, salt, and water. The dough is then rolled out and cut into long strips, which are then twisted and stretched to create the distinctive shape. The dough is then fried in hot oil until golden brown and crispy.
Cakwe can be eaten on their own as a snack or served with a dipping sauce, such as chili sauce or soy sauce. They are also commonly eaten for breakfast or as a side dish with congee, a rice porridge.
Cakwe are a simple and satisfying snack that are enjoyed by many people in Southeast Asia. They are easy to make at home and can be customized with different seasonings or dipping sauces to suit your taste preferences.
