| 6 | Eggs | |
| 3 cups | 187g / 6.6oz | Flour - sifted, plus flour |
| As needed | ||
| 1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Baking powder |
| 1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Salt |
| 1/2 cup | 99g / 3.5oz | Butter - melted and cooled |
| High-quality vegetable oil - for deep-frying | ||
| Honey - to taste | ||
| Ground cinnamon - to taste | ||
| Finely chopped walnuts or pistachios - optional |
Break eggs into a large mixing bowl and beat with a rotary beater or electric beater until very light. Combine the 3 cups flour, baking powder, and salt in a sifter and sift into eggs.
With your hands, work dry ingredients into eggs to make a smooth consistency that does not stick to your fingers. Add flour as needed to eliminate stickiness.
Transfer dough to a lightly floured board. Add butter, a few drops at a time, and knead until dough is smooth (about 10 minutes). Pull off about a quarter of the dough and cover remaining dough with a tea towel to prevent it from drying out.
With a rolling pin, roll out dough paper-thin. Cut in 4 by 6-inch rectangles and sprinkle lightly with flour. Cover rectangles and repeat with remaining dough.
In a saucepan pour oil to a depth of about 3 inches and heat oil to 360F. While oil is heating, pour some honey into a small saucepan and place over very low heat to warm.
Drop rectangles, one at a time, into oil; as each enters the oil, use 2 forks to roll it up quickly into a cylinder.
Fry rolls until lightly golden on all sides; remove to paper towels to drain.
