  3. Transfer the mix to a piping bag. Pipe long sticks on a parchment paper. If the mix is too soft you can add some more flour to it but not too much.
    Alternatively you can grease your hands and roll them too but I find this faster and easier to make the shapes.

  4. Freeze them for 30 mins or till bit firm. Deep fry in a wide pan till Golden brown.

  5. Use hot oil and do not fry on low heat else they absorb oil and won't be crispy.

  6. Drain them in a cooling rack. Placing them directly on tissues will make them soggy.

Notes

Cover with a Cling Film and FREEZE till firm to avoid breaking them while frying. Also to make them crispy, fry in very HOT oil at medium heat. Frying in low heat will make them absorb too much oil and make them soggy later.
