Instructions
- In a large bowl, sift the flour, add the baking powder and mix well.
- Make a well in the middle and add the boiling water and oil.
- Use a spatula to mix everything well into a thick dough.
- In a deep frying pan/pot, heat up the oil.
- Transfer the dough to a sturdy piping bag fitted with a large star nozzle.
- Pipe a churro of about 10 cm /4 inches long, and use kitchen scissors to cut it in order to drop it in the hot oil.
- Fry for 2-3 minutes until golden, then transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper to absorb the excess oil.
- In a bowl, mix the cinnamon with sugar, and coat each churro well.
- Serve with chocolate dipping sauce.
Notes
- Piping bags are not as sturdy as they should be, if you find it tricky to pipe out the dough, double up the bags to make it stronger.
- Use a neutral cooking oil for frying up the churros, as a stronger oil like olive oil might change the taste slightly.
- Churros are best served straight away, while they are perfectly crispy, as when they cool down they tend to lose their crispiness.
