Description:
Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao is a Chinese snack food, typically eaten during breakfast. Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao is also consumed throughout the day as a light snack.

Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao is made from a dough batter that has all purpose flour, water, salt, sugar, baking powder, yeast and vegetable oil. The batter is then piped into hot vegetable oil for frying, in the form of 2 long joined strips. This is the Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao signature shape, similar to the shape of a bread stick.

While Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao can be eaten plain, a Singaporean practice of dunking it into a hot drink, such as coffee or soya bean milk, is also very popular. A good Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao should have a light crisp exterior, that breaks nicely when bitten, while still being slightly fluffy and soft inside, and not too oily.

Attempts have been made to produce artisinal Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao, which is normal Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao flavoured or topped with additional ingredients. Such ingredients include sesame seeds, almonds, onions or green tea.

I personally like eating Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao on its own, rather than dunking it into a drink, which makes it lose its crispness.

These are the top 3 stalls which I feel serve the best Fried Dough Fritter You Tiao in Singapore.
