CHURROS



Churros image

These Mexican fritters are very common at fairs. In my border hometown, the line at this stand is always overwhelming. People wait hours in line just to get a taste of these churros. I have run across several recipes but this is the best one by far.

Categories     Snack

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup + 1 tablespoon water
1 cup flour (Sensi used pastry flour but all other recipes I've seen use all-purpose)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (not typical in Spanish churros but Sensi used it and it was delicious!)
Olive oil for frying (you can substitute vegetable oil if you must, but everyone in Andalusia fries with olive oil)

Steps:

  • Sift the flour and stir in the baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  • Bring the water to a boil, then take off of the heat and whisk in the dry ingredients.
  • Stir for two-three minutes until the dough is consistent and lump free (you could also beat the mixture with an electric mixer for one minute on a medium speed)
  • 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
  • Repeat the process until all the churros have been made
  • Cut the spirals into sticks of churros and serve with hot chocolate or sprinkle with sugar

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!
