You wake up one morning feeling alone, blue, and bored. What do you do? First, go to the kitchen and make a large lump of dough. Next, find yourself a quiet, cozy corner and start making tiny little balls with your fingers, all the while repeating, “Loves me, loves me not. Loves me, loves me not…” Similar to what you do with petals, only this time you are in control. Towards the end, you adjust the sizes of the tiny balls to have the ending you desire. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all of life was like that? Or maybe not. Some people would wreak havoc in this world if things always had the outcome they desired.
We would like to tell you that this is the story of how these little fried balls of dough started, but that is something we just made up. The real story is that at one time there was a shortage of maize in Brava and this meant that the daanku (Bravanese corn nut mix) couldn’t be made. So someone came up with the idea of making these crunchy dough balls to replace the maize in the daanku. The next season, the harvest was great and the maize came back, but the zibuuri stayed, tried and tasted…
Making these tiny balls is therapeutic. As you first sit down to make them, the task will seem quite daunting. If you persist, you will break that mountain into small pieces, just like life’s problems. Then after frying them, you will have the added satisfaction of crushing them between your teeth.

طريقة التحضير
اضغط على الخطوة لتعليمها كمنجزة.
Combine all the ingredients and mix well. Knead the dough then let it rest for 15 minutes.
Work with a fistful of dough and cover the rest so the dough doesn’t dry up. Shape into very small balls.
Fry the dough balls in vegetable or canola oil. Set the heat to medium and fry until golden brown. Stir to make sure that they brown evenly.
Using a slotted spoon, lift the fried dough balls from the oil and place in a colander to drain the oil.
Add corn nuts, raisins, sultanas, roasted peanuts, nonpareils, sugar and a little oil. Mix well to coat with the sugar.
It is common to add food colour to the dough. Mix a small quantity of dough and add the colour of your choice. You can make dough balls of different colours.

Asselamu aleykum
Can I use the oven instead of frying? If so how many degree and time?
Thank you.
Yes, you can. Spread them single layered in a baking sheet and bake at 350°F/177°C until golden brown. Turn every now and then so they brown evenly.
