Food blogger Tetiana Yushyna shared her secrets for making crispy homemade verguns on her Instagram page. A win-win ingredient that makes the dough perfectly crispy is vodka.

3. Gradually add the sifted flour while kneading the dough. At first, mix with a spoon, and when the dough becomes thick, continue kneading with your hands.
4. Knead a soft, elastic dough that does not stick to your hands.
5. Divide the finished dough into 3-5 pieces for convenience.
6. Roll out each part into a thin layer, as thin as you can.
Frying the products

7. Cut the dough into strips. Make a cut in the center of each strip and roll one edge through the hole to form the characteristic shape of the verguns.
8. Heat a large amount of oil in a deep frying pan or cauldron. There should be enough oil to deep-fry the verguns.

10. Fry on each side for about 1 minute until golden brown. Avoid overcooking.
