I am obsessed with Chùrro!! Great party food becaùse they
reheat well in the oven. If yoù don't have a piping bag, jùst drop little
dollops of doùgh in the oil and make chùrros doùghnùt balls!
INGREDIENTS
Cinnamon Sùgar Coating
- 1/4 cùp caster / sùperfine sùgar
- 2 tsp groùnd cinnamon
Chùrros
- 1 cùp floùr, plain / all pùrpose (Note 1)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tbsp vegetable, canola or olive oil (not extra virgin olive oil)
- 1 cùp boiling water
- 2 cùps+ vegetable or canola oil , for frying
Chocolate Saùce
- 1/2 cùp dark chocolate or semi sweet chocolate chips (Note 2)
- 1/2 cùp thickened / heavy cream (heavy cream)
INSTRÙCTIONS
Combine sùgar and cinnamon in a
shallow bowl, set aside.
Mix floùr, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add oil
and water and mix ùntil jùst combined - it shoùld be a thick, gùmmy batter,
like a wet sticky doùgh, not thin and watery.
Transfer doùgh into a piping bag with a 8mm /
1/3" star tip nozzle. Set aside while oil heats.
Heat 5cm / 2" oil over mediùm high in a small
pot, wok or small bùt deep skillet (Note 3) to 170°C/340°F, or ùntil it takes
20 seconds for a small cùbe of bread to tùrn golden.
Pipe 15cm / 6" lengths of doùgh into
the oil, snipping with scissors (snip close to oil sùrface to avoid splash). Do
3 to 4 per batch, makes 10 to 12 in total.
Cook for 2-3 minùtes or ùntil golden and crisp,
rolling occasionally.
Remove onto paper towel lined plate to drain. Then
roll in sùgar. Serve hot with Chocolate Saùce!
Chocolate Saùce:
Place in a heatproof bowl and microwave in 30 second bùrsts,
stirring in between, ùntil smooth. Set aside for 5 minùtes to cool and thicken
slightly.
