Fay Foods Puff Puff Mix 650g

Description

Fay Foods Puff Puff Mix 650g is a ready-blended mix for making puff puff — the light, fluffy, deep-fried dough balls that are a beloved West African snack and party food, with a slightly sweet flavour and crisp golden exterior. This mix takes the guesswork out of getting the batter right, so all you need to add is water (and yeast, if not already included — check the pack). Pack size: 650g.

How to prepare

• Mix with warm water (and yeast, if required by the pack instructions) to a thick, smooth batter, then leave to rise for around 30-60 minutes until bubbly.
• Deep-fry spoonfuls of the risen batter in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, turning occasionally for even colour.
• Drain on paper towel and serve warm, on their own or dusted with sugar.

Storage

• Store the dry mix in a cool, dry place in an airtight container away from moisture.
• Best used within 6 months of opening.

Frequently asked

Is puff puff the same as doughnuts?

They're similar in spirit — both are fried, sweetened dough — but puff puff is shaped by hand or spoon into rounds rather than rolled and cut, giving it a distinctive light, airy texture.

Can I make puff puff without yeast?

Check the pack — some mixes include a raising agent already, while others call for yeast or baking powder to be added. Follow the pack instructions for best results.
