Easy way to cook Churros
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Create a well in the center.
- Add water/milk and vanilla extract to the well. Mix until a dough forms.
- Knead dough on a floured surface until smooth (about 5 minutes).
- Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
- Roll out dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into 10-12cm long tubes, leaving one end open.
- Place a piping bag tip at the open end of each tube.
- Heat oil in a deep pan or fryer until it reaches 170°C (not too hot to prevent breaking).
- Pipe dough into preheated oil, ensuring churros are about 10cm long.
- Fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
- Toss fried churros in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon or drizzle with honey for extra sweetness.
Pro version
- For professional results, use an industrial fryer and fine mesh basket to prevent churros from breaking.
- Experiment with fillings like Nutella, banana cream, or caramel apple for unique flavors.
- Offer a variety of coatings, such as rainbow sprinkles or coconut sugar for dietary preferences.
Tips / Plating:
- Placing churros on a elegant plate with a dusting of powdered sugar and a touch of cinnamon creates a visually appealing dessert.
- Consider serving them in a cone shape with a side of fruit salad or whipped cream for a complete dessert
experience. - Serve warm with dipping sauces like chocolate ganache or fruit compote.
- Arrange on plates with a drizzle of caramel or icing sugar for presentation.
