Easy churros

These churros will be an instant delight with the family. Add a little chocolate dipping sauce to entice those tastebuds. Adjust sugar content to suit your taste. If you have no piping bag just get a ziplock bag and cut a small hole.

Ingredients (makes 12 Churros)

1 cup Water
1 cup Plain flour
2 1/2 Tbsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Salt
2 Tbsp Vegetable oil (plus oil for deep frying)
1/2 cup Sugar to taste
1 tsp Cinnamon

Method

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine water, 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar, salt and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in flour until mixture forms a ball.
Heat oil for frying in deep-fryer or deep skillet to 190 degrees C. Pipe strips of dough into hot oil using a pastry bag. Fry until golden; drain on paper towel.
Combine 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon. Roll drained churros in cinnamon and sugar mixture.

Question: in step one, do you wait for the liquid mixture cooled and then stir in flour?
I guess it will be difficult to handle hot ingredients in the piping bag.

Ooh yum. It could be very dangerous for me to learn how to make these. At the moment they’re a rare treat, maybe once or twice a year at San Churros. If we made them at home… I worry for our waistline.
