1/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup butter
1/2 tsp. cinnamon powder

4) Dust the surface with a little flour and roll out each.
5) Roll until the dough is about 1/4″ thick.
6) Cut the rolled dough into about 3″ long strips.
7) Drop the first batch of strips in hot oil. Stir to ensure strips are covered with oil.
8) Fry first on a low flame until crispy. Then raise the fire.
