Ingredients

Servings: 10
  • 75 g Lard (1/3 cup)
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 110 g Flour (1 cup)
  • 3 Eggs (size M)
  • 1,5 l oil for frying
  • 225 g sugar (1 cup)
  • 2 TEASPOONS Cinnamon

Directions

  1. 1

    Bring lard, 250 ml water (1 cup) and salt to the boil in a pot. Sift flour on top and stir in with a perforated spoon. Turn off the stove and leave to stand on it while stirring until the dough separates from the bottom as a lump and a white film forms on the bottom of the pot. Remove from the heat and pour into a mixing bowl. Cool down and stir several times. Add the eggs and stir in with a perforated spoon until a smooth dough is formed. Heat the oil in a wide pot to 175-180 ° C.

  2. 2

    Pour dough into a piping bag with a large star-shaped spout. Carefully squirt 3 strips (each approx. 13 cm long) directly into the hot oil, cutting them off with a knife. Fry for 4-5 minutes while turning until golden brown. Mix sugar and cinnamon. Remove the churros with a ladle, let them drip off briefly on kitchen paper and then turn them in the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Process the rest of the dough in the same way

  3. 3

    Pour the dough directly into the oil, as it is so tender that you can no longer handle it
