Spanish Churros -
Ingredients
2 glasses of flour
2 glasses of boiled water
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 litre Extra Virgin Olive Oil
sugar to sprinkle on the top of churros
Preparation
1
To start, a few recommendations from us:
2
- You should make churros using an original "churrera". You can use a pastry bag but the churros need to be rigged, to avoid them to explode or overcookwhen fried.
3
- To make a proper dough use BOILING water: hot water won’t mix properly with flour.
4
- Always be careful! We use extremely hot water and oil, so take all possible precautions to avoid burns.
