Instructions
- 1
Beat the eggs with the cream and milk, then work in the flour, baking powder and salt to a soft dough.

Roll very thin and cut into 8x12 cm rectangles, then cut a slit down the middle of each.
- 4
Heat the oil to 185C and fry a few at a time until puffed and golden, about 90 seconds a side.
- 5
Drain on paper and serve immediately, while still hot.
