Knead the flour, eggs, melted butter, and salt into a firm dough.
Cover the dough and rest it for 20 minutes.
Roll the dough thin and cut it into short strips and small pieces.
Heat the vegetable oil to about 170°C and fry the dough pieces for 4 minutes until golden.
Warm the honey and sugar over low heat for 4 minutes until they form a fluid syrup.
Quickly mix the fried dough pieces with the honey syrup and walnuts.
Press the mixture into a dome on an oiled plate, let it set for 20 minutes, then slice.
💡 Tip: Do not boil the honey syrup too long; if it thickens and hardens, the dessert turns stone-like rather than pleasantly crisp when sliced.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve chak-chak in small slices on a shared dessert plate with unsweetened tea and optional clotted cream.
