Crispy golden you tiao are classic Chinese fried dough sticks enjoyed at breakfast. A family favorite paired with soy milk or congee for a traditional morning meal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until evenly combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg with milk, water, and 2 tbsp vegetable oil; pour this wet mixture into the dry ingredients.
Mix until a sticky dough forms, then knead for 8–10 minutes on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic.
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for at least 1 hour for best texture and rise.
Lightly oil your work surface, then roll the dough into a rectangle about ½ inch thick; slice into 1-inch wide strips.
Pair two strips and press together along the center using a chopstick to form a double stick; gently stretch to about 8–10 inches.
In a deep pan, heat 3 cups vegetable oil to 375°F (medium-high); gently lower each dough stick into oil and fry in batches, turning constantly for even golden color, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
Drain fried you tiao on paper towels and serve hot with fresh soy milk or congee.
