Easy Spanish Churros Food

EASY SPANISH CHURROS

Steps:

• Mix the water with the butter and salt over medium to high heat on your stove. If making the vegan churros, mix the water with olive oil and salt.
• When it begins to boil, remove it from the heat.
• Immediately mix in the flour until it's completely incorporated into the water mixture. If making the vegan version, you can skip to the shaping step. You can add water, if needed, to get a thick, workable dough.
• For the choux dough version, add the egg, and mix well until all of the ingredients are completely combined. You will end up with a very thick batter.
• Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. You'll want to use enough oil for the churros to be able to float in the pan without touching the bottom.
• To shape the churros, load the batter into a churros dispenser, heavy-duty piping/frosting bag, or a cookie press. I use an electric cookie press with a large star-shaped disk. If you are using a piping bag, use the biggest tip you can find. A star-shaped tip will make your churros look more authentic.
• Pipe the churros onto a clean cloth and cut them to a size that will fit in your pot for deep frying.
• When the oil has warmed to around 190ºC/375ºF, you can begin to add the piped dough into the hot oil.
• Cook until the churros are golden brown.
• Remove from the oil, and immediately sprinkle with granulated sugar.
• Continue with the process until you have finished using up all of your dough.
• Serve with a homemade Spanish hot chocolate.

• Let the dough rest and cool for about 5 minutes
• Fill a churrera (churro maker) or a pastry sleeve with a star tip with the churro dough
• Heat the oil to a medium heat and when it's hot enough pipe the dough in a circular motion.
• Separate the spirals so that they don't stick and flip the spiral if necessary
• When they are golden on the outside take out and let rest on paper towels

• Cut the spirals into sticks of churros and serve with hot chocolate or sprinkle with sugar

CHURROS

Steps:

• Boil the kettle, then measure 300ml boiling water into a jug and add the melted butter and vanilla extract. Sift the flour and baking powder into a big mixing bowl with a big pinch of salt. Make a well in the centre, then pour in the contents of the jug and very quickly beat into the flour with a wooden spoon until lump-free. Rest for 10-15 mins while you make the sauce.
• Put all the sauce ingredients into a pan and gently melt together, stirring occasionally until you have a smooth shiny sauce. Keep warm on a low heat.
• Fill a large deep saucepan one-third full of oil. Cooking with hot oil can be dangerous - before you start, read up on how to deep-fry safely to avoid accidents in the kitchen. Heat until a cube of bread browns in 45 seconds to 1 min. Cover a tray with kitchen paper and mix the caster sugar and cinnamon together.
• Fit a star nozzle to a piping bag - 1.5-2cm wide is a good size. Fill with the rested dough, then pipe 2-3 strips directly into the pan, snipping off each dough strip with a pair of kitchen scissors. Fry until golden brown and crisp. Be very careful here - if air bubbles form in the churros they can explode, especially if the oil overheats or you use old flour. Cooking with hot oil can be dangerous - before you start, read up on how to deep-fry safely to avoid accidents in the kitchen. Keep children out of the kitchen and protect yourself by wearing long sleeves and eye protection, and keeping your face away from the pan.
• Once the churros are crisp and golden brown, remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on the kitchen paper-lined tray. Carry on cooking the rest of the dough in batches, sprinkling the cooked churros with some cinnamon sugar as you go. When you've cooked all the churros, toss with any remaining cinnamon sugar and serve with the chocolate sauce, for dipping.To see a video of how to prepare churros, take a look at our churros ice cream sandwich recipe.
