Sour Tapioca Starch Rings (Owl Rings)

Weigh 1 kg of sour tapioca starch, setting aside 300g initially to handle the dough.

In a bowl, add the margarine (approximately 40g, equivalent to a rounded tablespoon), one tablespoon of salt, and three tablespoons of sugar.

Pour 300 ml of boiling water over the dry ingredients (salt and sugar) and the margarine.

Add the egg to the mixture and mix slightly.

Transfer the dough to a clean counter and knead, adding more starch as needed until the dough reaches the ideal consistency, not sticking to your hands.

Shape the dough by making a long 'snake' and divide it into equal portions to form the rings (usually five portions).

Bake the rings in the preheated air fryer for 15 minutes at 170º Celsius.
