From Simply Delicioso with Ingrid Hoffmann on foodtv.com. These are a Mexican sweet that I have had a fairs and carnivals. I was thrilled to see it on TV and how easy they were to make using puff pastry. A healthier version because they are baked, not fried like the fair food.

CHURROS



Churros image

Try a fresh spin on doughnuts by piping them Spanish-style and serving with a thick and indulgent homemade dark chocolate sauce.

Provided by Sarah Cook

Categories     Dessert, Dinner

Time 1h

Yield Makes about 20 churros

Number Of Ingredients 13

50g butter, melted
½ tsp vanilla extract
250g plain flour, from a new bag (essential for absorbing the liquid)
1 tsp baking powder
about 1 litre sunflower oil
a few chunks of bread
200g dark chocolate, not too bitter, broken into chunks
100ml double cream
100ml whole milk
3 tbsp golden syrup
½ tsp vanilla extract, if you have some
100g caster sugar
2 tsp cinnamon

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ingredients: Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results. Opt for ripe bananas, real butter, and pure vanilla extract.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough churros. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a piping bag or ziplock bag: This will help you create evenly sized churros. If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a spoon to drop the batter into the hot oil.
  • Fry the churros in hot oil: The oil should be between 350-375°F (175-190°C). If the oil is not hot enough, the churros will absorb too much oil and become greasy. If the oil is too hot, the churros will cook too quickly and become overcooked.
  • Drain the churros on paper towels: This will help remove excess oil.
  • Serve the churros immediately: Churros are best enjoyed fresh and warm. You can sprinkle them with cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:
