Churros aka fried pastry, a delicious simple snack..

Since few weeks ago, I was attempting by Mbak Ricke's, that is this. Due to weight has gained reason, I try to ignore it. But, lately, I couldn't endure to try to make the choux pastry. I do agree with mbak Ricke statement that this fried choux pastry making process is quite simple and easy. Even I do not need mixer, oven and others baking equipment. 
Besides that, this crunchy snack also suitable for people who avoid emulsifier. Want to know how to make it?


Ingredients:
1. Water 250ml
2. Butter 50gr
3. Sifter of all purpose flour 150 gr
4. Sugar 1 tbs
5. Salt 1/4 teaspoon (I used 1/2 teaspoon)
6. 2 Eggs, whisk off.
7. Vanilla 1/4 teaspoon ( I used +/- 10 drop of liquid vanilla)
8. Canola oil for deep frying.

For topping:
1. Sugar 4 tbs
2. Cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon
(I didn't use topping, but it still tasteful.)

Directions:
1. Boil water, butter, sugar and salt until the butter melting.  Turn off the fire. Add the flour and stir quickly. After that, turn on the small fire, thus stir again until the dough disconnected with the pan or immune. Turn off the fire. Let it warm.
2. When the dough already warm, put the mixing of one egg. Stir well. If the dough is to thick, put another egg and mix well. 
3. Put all the dough into pipping bag. Set a syringe into one empty pipping bag, prepare a brass and sprinkle with flour.
4. Put a plastic of dough into set of syringe, and squirt in a brass. Form anything that you want. In that occasion, I made a stick and love.
5. After finished, put all the mold into freezer about 20 minutes to let them freeze therefore easy to fry.
6. After the choux freezing, take them from freezer, and deep frying until browned. When frying the churros, use a lot of oil.
7. Lift and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
