2 cups Farfalle or bow shaped pasta

4 cups oil

2 tablspns celery salt or Herbamare seasoning

DIRECTIONS

Boil the pasta in salted water according to instructions on the packet. Drain well and remove dampness with a paper towel ( this will stop he pasta splattering in the oil). Heat oil in a wok. Fry small batches of pasta in the hot oil until crispy, about 60 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towel. Toss in celery salt and serve in paper cones or cups.
