Best Chorizo Puffs Bunuelos De Chorizo Recipes

CHORIZO CROQUETTES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic and simmer until fragrant. Add the bacon and cook until rendered, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the chorizo and smoked pork loin and continue to cook for about 3 minutes. Add the cream and 16 ounces of the milk; bring to a boil, then turn the heat to low. Add the paprika and complete seasoning. Add the flour in four additions and cook until incorporated and no lumps remain. Transfer the mixture to a sheet pan and let cool. While the mixture is still warm, transfer it to a large piping bag and cut the tip 3/4 inch wide. Pipe onto a 13-by-18-inch baking sheet and score with a knife at 2-inch intervals. Freeze until firm, 1 hour.
• Cut through the scored sections and then roll the individual croquettes by hand to make them even. Whisk together the eggs and the remaining 8 ounces milk in a shallow dish until combined. Place the breadcrumbs in a separate shallow dish and set aside. Ten at a time, dip the croquettes in the egg mixture, place on a baking sheet to drain the excess egg and then toss lightly in the breadcrumb mixture. Place the breaded croquettes on a sheet pan and freeze.
• Heat vegetable oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F. Fry the croquettes until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.

PUFF PASTRY-WRAPPED CHORIZO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Stir together the parsley, olive oil, smoked paprika and garlic in a small bowl. Lay the puff pastry sheets flat on a work surface and cut one sheet in half; reserve one of the halves for another use. Rub the parsley mixture evenly over the 1 1/2 pastry sheets. Cut the one whole pastry sheet crosswise into thirds, then cut each third crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-wide strips. Cut the half sheet crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-wide strips, as well.
• Place a piece of chorizo on the end of one dough strip and roll the chorizo in the dough as you would a cinnamon bun. Press firmly at the seam to seal, then place the chorizo roll, seam-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chorizo and dough strips, leaving about 1 1/2 inches between each chorizo roll on the baking sheet (you will have a few extra dough strips).
• Bake the chorizo rolls until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a platter and serve warm.

CHORIZO AND MANCHEGO PUFFS

Steps:

• For the puffs: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the water, butter, and salt in a large saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil and stir until the butter melts. Stir in all the flour at once and stir with a wooden spoon. Stir and cook until a dough forms and pulls away from the sides of the pan, 2 to 3 minutes. The mixture will be in a tight ball and not stick to the sides or bottom of the pan.
• Remove from the heat and transfer the dough to the bowl of a standing mixer and let cool for 3 or 4 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, add the eggs, 1 at a time, making sure the first egg is completely incorporated before continuing. Once all the eggs have been added and the mixture is smooth, turn off the mixer and remove the bowl.
• Spoon half the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a round tip. Don't fill the bag completely. Twist the top of the bag so that the dough will not leak out. (To pipe out the dough, gently squeeze out the amount you want, then release.)
• On a sheet tray lined with parchment paper, squeeze out 1-inch size dough balls, about 2 inches apart. Form more balls on another sheet pan, if needed.
• Place in the oven and bake until they're golden and crispy, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• For the filling: In a food processor, pulse the chorizo until finely chopped, but not a paste. No large chunks. Transfer to a bowl, stir in the mascarpone, manchego, pimenton, and chives. Stir until well combined. Taste and add salt, if needed.
• Place the filling in another pastry bag outfitted with a small straight tip. Poke a hole in the side of each puff with the pastry bag tip and gently fill each puff with the filling and serve.

CHORIZO PUFFS

Steps:

• Heat a small saute pan over low heat and lightly cook the chorizo. Remove from the pan and let cool. Combine the chorizo, cheese, and green onion and set aside.
• Put the water, butter, and salt in a heavy 4-quart saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally, to melt the butter. Remove from the heat and add the flour all at once. Stir with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together to form a ball. Return the pan to medium-high heat and beat constantly until a film develops on the bottom of the pan, about 2 minutes. Do not let it burn
• Transfer the dough to an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue to beat the dough for about 3 to 4 minutes at high speed. Stir the chorizo mixture into the dough until evenly distributed. Transfer to a pastry bag. On a lightly floured work surface, pipe into 1-foot long ropes and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Lightly dust with flour.
• Pour 2 cups of vegetable oil into a wok and heat to 375 degrees F. Using a metal spoon drop the dough pieces into the hot oil. Fry the chorizo puffs for 2 1/2 minutes on each side or until golden. Take care not to over crowd the oil. Drain on absorbent paper and season immediately with 1 teaspoon of the Spice Mixture. Repeat until all dough has been used.
• Serve warm.
• Stir all the ingredients together in a small bowl. Store in a jar with a tight-fitting lid.
