  3. Roll the dough into a thin sheet, then cut it into squares or diamonds.
  4. Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the pieces for 3 minutes on each side.
  5. Drain on kitchen paper, then roughly crumble by hand into irregular pieces.
  6. Melt the butter and drizzle it over the kuirek while still warm before serving.

Variations and tips
