CHURROS

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

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.

HOW TO MAKE PERFECT CHURROS EVERY TIME RECIPE BY TASTY



How To Make Perfect Churros Every Time Recipe by Tasty image

Churros, the delectable, deep-fried pastry, are gooey and soft on the inside, with ridges on the outside that gather pockets of cinnamon and sugar and help to give that classic crunch. Here is Tasty's ultimate recipe for the perfect churro!

Provided by Aleya Zenieris

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

canola oil
½ cup water
½ cup milk
½ cup sugar, divided, plus 1 tablespoon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ stick unsalted butter
½ vanilla bean, seeds scraped
1 cup all purpose flour
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon ground ceylon cinnamon
6 oz semisweet chocolate chip
½ cup heavy cream
⅛ teaspoon cayenne
¼ teaspoon ground ceylon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Make the chocolate dipping sauce: Add the chocolate chips to a medium bowl and set aside.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the cream over medium heat until beginning gently simmer. Add the cayenne and cinnamon, then remove the pot from the heat.
  • Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate, then let sit for 2-3 minutes to soften the chocolate. Whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and keep warm until ready to serve.
  • Make the churros: Fill a 12-inch cast iron skillet with 1½ inches of canola oil. Heat over medium heat until the temperature reaches 370°F (188°C). Line a baking sheet with 2 layers of paper towels and set a wire rack on top.
  • Meanwhile, in a small stainless steel saucepan, combine the water, milk, 1 tablespoon sugar, the salt, butter, and vanilla bean seeds and pod. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  • Once boiling, remove the vanilla bean pod, then add the flour all at once. Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together in a ball and no longer sticks to the pan, about 5 minutes.
  • Immediately transfer the dough to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and let cool for 5 minutes.
  • With the mixer running on medium speed, add the eggs, 1 at a time, and beat until completely incorporated before adding the next, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. The dough should be smooth and creamy, like a thick custard.
  • Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a 6B open star tip. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the remaining ½ cup sugar and the cinnamon.
  • Working in batches of about 4 churros at a time to avoid overcrowding the pan, pipe the dough into the hot oil in 5-6-inch lengths, using a pair of kitchen scissors to snip off the dough at the end of the piping tip. Cook, turning the churros frequently, until golden brown all over, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to the wire rack to drain for about 15 seconds, then toss in the cinnamon sugar until well coated. Transfer to a serving dish. Repeat with the remaining churros, letting the oil return to temperature between batches.
  • Serve the churros immediately with the chocolate sauce for dipping.
  • Enjoy!

Tips for Making the Best Churros:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh eggs, real butter, and strong flour will help you make the best churros.
  • Follow the recipe carefully: Don't skip any steps or substitute ingredients, as this could ruin your churros.
  • Be patient: Making churros takes time and effort, but it's worth it! Don't rush the process, or your churros will turn out undercooked or doughy.
  • Use the right oil: Churros should be fried in hot oil (350°F/175°C). You can use vegetable oil, canola oil, or sunflower oil.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When frying churros, don't overcrowd the pan, or they will stick together and not cook evenly.
  • Drain the churros on paper towels: After frying, drain the churros on paper towels to remove any excess oil.

Conclusion:

Churros are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're perfect for parties and gatherings, and they're also a great way to use up leftover dough. With a little practice, you can make churros that are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
