Delicious Churros with Dulce de Leche: The Perfect Recipe

O Que Você Precisa Saber

- Cooking the flour in boiling water with butter until it pulls away from the pan creates the structure of the dough. - Adding the eggs one by one after the dough warms up ensures shine and the correct texture for shaping. - The oil temperature at 180°C seals the ridges of the star tip without soaking the interior with fat.

Ingredients

Main Course

  • 1 cup of water
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • Oil for frying
  • Dulce de leche to taste for filling
  • Ground cinnamon and sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

Main Course

1

In a pot, place the water, butter, sugar, and salt and bring to a boil.

2

Add the wheat flour all at once, stirring with a wooden spoon until a homogeneous dough forms that pulls away from the sides of the pan.

3

Remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes.

4

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and shiny.

5

Place the dough in a piping bag with a star tip.

6

Heat the oil in a large pot to 180°C.

7

Carefully pipe strips of batter about 10 cm long directly into the hot oil.

8

Fry until the churros are golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.

9

Remove the churros and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

10

Sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon mixture while still hot.

11

With a toothpick, make a small hole in each churro and fill with the dulce de leche using a piping bag.

12

Serve immediately for better crunch and flavor.

Chef Tips

- Utilize saco de confeitar reforçado e bico estrela de metal, já que a massa de churros é firme e densa. - Corte as tiras de massa com tesoura untada em óleo rente ao bico diretamente sobre a panela quente. - Role os churros na mistura de açúcar e canela logo após escorrer no papel para fixar a cobertura.

Variations

- Shape the churros into short 5 cm strips and serve in pots to dip in the dulce de leche at the table. - Bake in an air fryer at 200°C for 10 minutes, lightly greasing with oil for a non-deep-fried version. - Add a pinch of grated nutmeg to the water before boiling to perfume the pasta.

Substitutions

- Traditional pasty dulce de leche can be replaced by spoon brigadeiro, hazelnut cream, or creamy guava paste. - The butter in the dough can be replaced with culinary margarine with 80% fat or vegetable oil. - The cinnamon powder in the topping can be replaced by fine vanilla bean scrapings.

How to Store

Immediate consumption is most recommended to enjoy the external crunchiness of the dough. If there are leftovers, store in a container lined with paper towels without sealing for up to 24 hours and reheat in the oven at 180°C for 5 minutes.

Can You Freeze It?

Freeze the raw dough strips already shaped on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper until they harden for 3 hours and transfer to plastic bags for up to 60 days. Fry the strips directly frozen in oil at 170°C for about 4 minutes until golden.

What to Serve With

Serve with small pots of varied sauces like dark chocolate syrup, creamy beijinho, or extra dulce de leche. Pairs perfectly with a cup of creamy hot chocolate or drip coffee.

Frequently Asked Questions

Por que a massa de churros pode espirrar ou estourar no óleo quente?

O perigo de estouro ocorre pelo vapor aprisionado em massas modeladas sem ranhuras; o uso de bico estrela ou pitanga é mandatório para criar vincos que escoam a pressão interna durante a cocção.

How to open the central hole of the churros without a specific device?

Pierce the center of the fried churros with a barbecue skewer, turning delicately clockwise throughout the length, and use a long filling nozzle attached to a pastry bag with the dulce de leche.

Can I bake the churros in a conventional oven?

Yes, arrange the shaped strips on a greased baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 15 to 18 minutes until golden, brushing with melted butter before wrapping in sugar and cinnamon.

What is the correct temperature to add the eggs to the dough?

The cooked dough must cool before adding the eggs; putting eggs in very hot dough cooks the yolk prematurely and destroys the elasticity necessary for the piping bag.
