Ingredients
  • For "almonds"
  • -
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil (I use sunflower)
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tbsp white vinegar
  • approximately 1-2 cups of all purpose flour
  • 1-1/2 cups cooking oil
  • -
  • -
  • For "dumplings"
  • -
  • 1 cup of cream of wheat
  • 2/3 of water indicated on box. In other words, if recipe calls for 1 cup of water, use 2/3 cup
  • pinch of salt

Directions
  1. Make the "almonds"
  2. -
  3. Mix egg, water and oil and whisk lightly
  4. In a tablespoon, mix baking soda and vinegar - foam will rise rapidly - dump it into the egg mix and whisk some more
  5. In small batches, add flour until soft and non-sticky dough forms. Knead moderately until smooth
  6. -
  7. Heat cooking oil in a small sauce pan until slightly smoky.
  8. Reduce heat to medium
  9. -
  10. Divide dough into 2-3 pieces for easier management
  11. For each piece, do the following:
  12. Roll dough into a stick, about hot-dog like thickness
  13. Cut the stick into 1/2 inch thick pieces with a floured knife
  14. Toss about 20-25 pieces at a time into the hot oil
  15. Fry on all sides, turning frequently to prevent burning
  16. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon when they gain a pleasant golden brown color
  17. Transfer "almonds" onto paper towel to drain excess fat
  18. -
  19. Serve "almonds" fresh straight into a chicken soup bowl - a few at a time, to keep them crunchy.
  20. Never heat the soup with "almonds" in it - they will turn into spongy, mushy, bloated monsters
  21. -
  22. -
  23. Make the "dumplings"
  24. -
  25. Cook cream of wheat according to instructions on the box until a thick meal forms
  26. Fold the meal out on a flat dish or a plastic tray and spread evenly with a wide blade knife of spatula - until smooth
  27. Let cool and put in the fridge for an hour or so
  28. When cream of wheat sets and solidifies, remove from the fridge and cut into small squares or diamonds with a wet knife.
  29. Put dumplings into serving bowls before pouring the soup in
