Churros

INGREDIENTS:

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

2 1/2 cups water

1/2 tsp salt

3 tbsp dark brown sugar

2 egg yolks

Oil for frying

RECIPE:

Sift together flour and baking soda, then set aside. Bring water to a boil then stir in the salt and dark brown sugar and stir till dissolved.

Beat water mixture into flour till smooth and well combined (do not use a handheld beater, if you have a kitchenaid great, if not use your hands), then beat in the egg yolks one at a time till the mixture is smooth and glossy.

Heat oil in a large saucepan to 190 degrees C, then fill the piping bag (fitted with a star nozzle) and pipe 5 to 6 churros into the hot oil.

Fry for 3 to 4 minutes or till the churros are golden brown. Drain them, shake them in some cinnamon sugar and then set dulce de leceh next to them. However, if you do not have any dulce de leche, make yourslf some thick Mexican drinking chocolate and dip it in there.
