It is necessary
- - 500 g flour
- - a pinch of salt
- - 4 eggs
- - 1 tbsp. Sahara
- - lemon zest to taste

Instructions
Step 1
Mix the flour with sugar, zest and salt, pour a heaped surface onto the table, make a depression in the center and drive eggs into it. Then knead to a smooth dough.
Step 2
The dough must be divided into parts. Then from each make a tourniquet about 2 cm thick. The tourniquets are cut into pieces. Heat in a deep skillet over moderate heat.
Step 3
In several batches, it is necessary to fry the dough pieces until golden brown on all sides. The pieces of dough in the pan should not be cramped.
Step 4
Transfer the finished balls to paper towels to absorb excess fat.
Step 5
Now you need to prepare the syrup. To do this, put sugar and honey in a small ladle and put on the stove. Over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, bring the sugar to complete dissolution. The balls must be put in syrup and mixed.
Step 6
Transfer to a dish with a slide, alternating with chopped candied fruits. Decorate everything with colored sprinkles. Let the struffoli harden and serve.
