Butsi Espesyal Recipe

Butsi Espesyal Recipe



Hello Everyone!
Hungry for some snack or merienda today? Perfect!, I got a scrumptious recipe for you to try at home. As you all know me, I love sweets, and who doesn't? Especially if it is made from scratch just like how I remembered it back home. Do you remember my post from last year of Butsi Recipe?  I can't get enough of this classic merienda that I dearly love. It's not only its my favorite merienda growing up, It also remind me of my grandma, she made butsi all the time, that's were I learned how to make them. Thank you, Grandma!:) Anyways, the recipe from previous post is no different this time. The only thing that I change is the size of the Butsi, that's all! I love making little butsi but I found it easier to fry when they are little larger and less time spent in the kitchen as well. 
We call it Butsi-( Butsi with sweet coconut filling inside and coated with granulated sugar) back home especially in Mindanao area where this sweet treat is very popular. There is also Butchi with sweet monggo filling rolled into a sesame seeds which you can get at( Chowking) famous fast food chain in the Philippines. I love those kind of Butchi too. They are different in terms of ingredients but both are equally delicious.
Anyways, which one do you prefer to eat? I would go with Butsi that I'm familiar with and I know exactly how to make them. Are you hungry already just by talking about it? Me too, Come on join me in my kitchen as I made this delicious and super easy treat that is so perfect for everyone.:)




 
Ingredients:
2 cups All purpose flour
1/2 cup lukewarm water
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup butter- cold and chopped into cube
1 pack yeast or (2 1/4 teaspoon yeast)
1 tsp. salt
granulated sugar- for coating
oil for frying- I used canola oil
Coconut Filling-
- combine 2 1/2 cups of shredded coconut/ or coconut flakes and 1/2 cup brown sugar let it set overnight. Note: Used fresh coconut if you have one if the above method is pretty close.:)

Procedure:
* NOTE: Flip the Butsi ONE to avoid greasy butsi. Stay close to the fryer, because it cook FAST! 
1.) In large bowl combine the flour, salt, sugar, yeast and chopped butter. Mix until well combined.
2.) Add the lukewarm water and egg and mix it well.
3.) Knead the dough into clean surface until it become elastic. Let the dough rise 1-2 hours.
4.) Divide the dough into 8 parts. Form the dough into balls, flatten it out using rolling pin. Add as much coconut filling as you want as long as it close tightly for frying. Repeat the process until everything is done.
5.) Let it rise dor like 25-30 minutes. It also gives you time to heat up your oil or frying..:)
6.) Fry the butsi in medium low for about 2-3 minutes on each side.  Make sure that its cook all the way before turning it over.  Drop this cuties into granulated sugar for coating. YUM!
7.) DONE! Serve it hot or cold along with your favorite drink and let your friends come over. 
In large bowl combine flour, sugar, yeast, salt and butter. Mix well until everything incorporated.
2.) Add the egg into the mixture and lukewarm water and start mixing together.
3.) Knead the dough in clean floured surface until smooth and elastic. Let is rise for 1-2 hours.
4.) Divide the dough into 20 pieces. Start forming the dough into little balls, flatten it out using the rolling pin, and fill the coconut filling. Do this process until everything is done.

  3. Nagutom ako sa post mo, sis. I miss eating buchi! Back when I was still living in the province during my younger days, naku lagi ako nakakain nito because my lola used to sell it in school (I'm her assistant vendor, hihi!) and after recess, I would ask her if I could eat one, too. Nakakamiss those days, I was still in grade school back then. Makapagluto nga nito one time. Thanks for the recipe, sis! At last, a recipe that doesn't need an oven, haha! :-)
