Squeeze the peanut paste to remove as much oil as possible. This step is very important to obtain a very crisp kuli-kuli.

Divide the dough into about twenty pieces and give the kuli-kuli their shape: either in a stick, in a small crown, or in balls.

Add 2 tablespoons of water to the dough if it does not work easily.

Heat a large volume of peanut oil in a deep pan.

Fry the kuli-kuli over medium heat until golden brown.
