This is how to make Nigerian chin chin with egg and milk. It has a very light crunch because of the addition of eggs. My coconutty chin chin and the good Nigerian chin chin turned out very crunchy but this is different. Those who don’t like to have
a headache trying to chew chin chin will love this recipe. A light crunch like when you bite on baby carrots and crisp too.
After sharing the good chin chin on Social Media, I remember a comment that asked if eggs can be added to chin chin. Yes. You can add eggs but not if you want a dog waking crunch. Eggs help to reduce the hardness in chin chin.
EASY TO CHEW But not soft.
Chin chin is always for my family, never for me. But surprisingly, these succeeded in making me enjoy them. Used my basic chin chin ingredients and same chin chin recipe but added an egg to this recipe. When I make chin chin, the good chin chin recipe used here is what we always use and it never disappoints.
Add an egg and you create this not too crunchy chin chin. When we need to make much, all we do is multiply the ingredients and fry. Different hands did the cutting of the chin chin, hence the different shapes and sizes. My four year old wanted to show that he can cut chin chin, that’s his own looking really beautiful with cuts and scrapes all over.
Lightly sprinkle flour on the table before spreading the chin chin dough to cut. Fry as brown as you want. Light, golden or dark brown.
