Recipe Type: Appetiser

So,Two types of dough went into these somaos’s dough . An oil dough, and a water dough. So what’s an oil and water dough? The oil dough is a dough made of only flour and fats. It is supposed to replicate the butter in puff pastries to create the layerings. This oil dough is much more easier to work with as compared to working with naked butter as you have the flour to help you hold the fats together. You won’t run the risk of butter melting and oozing out of everywhere with this. And you will be less likely to pull your hair out in frustration should that happen. As for the water dough, there is of course water included in the dough. The water and the flour allows gluten to be formed. The dough is then kneaded till it gets pliable enough to wrap the oil dough. Okay, not to bore you with anymore skin details, i shall now move on to the fillings.
