Churros


The recipe is a basic choux paste dough so its very versatile... you can make churros with it, eclairs and even cream puffs! But of course those needs to be baked while churros is a quick deep fry..

In a pan, mix 1 cup water, 110g butter, 1/4 tsp salt and 1 tablespoon sugar and heat until all the butter is melted. Add 1 cup flour and cook until the dough stops sticking onto the pan.
Transfer dough into a bowl and aerate the dough by vigourously stirring while adding the eggs. The recipe calls for 2 eggs. 

Using a piping bag with a medium star nozzle, pipe the dough in canola or veg oil and fry on both sides until brown...

sprinkle with cinnamon sugar or icing sugar with chocolate dip according to your preference... I like it on its own with cinnamon & icing sugar... bon appetite!!

Recipe:
