Ingredients:

1 cup (240ml) chick pea flour, sifted

3 tablespoons (45ml) chai tea

3 tablespoons (45ml) milk

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, egg yolks, milk and chai tea.

Mix until you reach a firm, uniform dough.

Roll out the dough over a lightly floured surface until it is approximately ¼ inch thick.

Cut the dough in strips that are approximately 1 inch wide.

Heat frying oil to 375^oF (190^oC).
