Baursak (Fried Dough)

Kazakh baursak is served often with tea, either as a appetizer or dessert. Fried dough is loved in nearly every nation on earth and Kazakhstan is no exception. They can be made as either triangles or spheres. Sometimes they will spread them all around the Darstakan (low table or covering) to show an abundance of food. We made ours in spheres and then sprinkled them with sugar. Fried dough is best enjoyed right out of the fryer and with a cup of Kazakh chai, YUM!
