Prepare the Dough

Shape the Dough

- Divide the dough into smaller portions and shape them into balls or desired shapes.
Boil the Dough
- Carefully place the shaped dough pieces into the boiling water.
- Boil for about 5-10 minutes, depending on the size of the dough pieces, until they float to the surface and are cooked through.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the boiled dough and place them on a cooling rack or a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess water.
