Churros

I've always been intrigued of how Churros are made, especially how Churros taste. I know it's the Latin version of doughnut, but for me, there's really no other way of getting introduced to a dish but to make them and taste them right after it's made.

Ingredients:
Dough
1 cup water
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup all purpose flour
1 egg

4 cups oil for deep frying

Coat
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Makes 24 sticks of 4-inch churros

Procedures:
Mix the coating in a medium mixing bowl or zip loc bag and set aside.

In a medium saucepan, heat your oil for deep frying until it reaches almost 380 degrees F.

While your oil is heating up, mix your dough in another medium saucepan on a medium high heat. Add, water, sugar, salt and vegetable oil, stir and let it reach the rolling boil stage.

Turn off the heat, add your flour and vigorously mix until a ball is formed. Rest for five minutes and re-mix with one whole egg.

Place the dough mix in a pastry bag with a 2D star tip for easy piping.

Once the oil is hot enough, start piping out 4-inch long churros strip directly into the oil. Don't overcrowd your pan to ensure you maintain the temperature for deep frying. If you use 2D tip, you only need 2 minutes per stick, otherwise you'll need to do a trial and error for thicker sticks.

Drain your churros on a kitchen towel and transfer to your coating mixture. Toss until its fully coated.

Serve your churros with hot chocolate for dipping or sipping and enjoy!

Happy Eating!

    I'm No Chef but I love food like it's no one's business.

    I didn't know anything about cooking... frying an egg used to be a nightmare.. until I was forced to learn more... I had my first born... that's when my gastronomic journey started...

    Join me in my food quest.
    Laugh at my embarrassing moments.
    Share my triumphs.

    And if you're brave enough ... cook with me (ooooh scary!), virtually that is, and have the most enjoyable time!

    Welcome aboard
