Ingredients

|---|---|---|
| 2 tbsp | brown sugar | |
| ½ tsp | salt | |
| 75 g | unsalted butter | |
| 125 g | plain flour | |
| 2 | QL Omega Eggs | |
| Vegetable oil enough for 2 inches high in fryer | ||

Method
- Combine water, brown sugar, salt and butter in a pan. Bring it to a boil. Once it reaches a boil, remove from heat and stir in the flour.
- Once the flour has stirred in, stir the mixture over low heat for 2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let it cool.
- Add in QL Omega Eggs, 1 at a time and mix well. The churros dough should be thick but soft.
- Let the dough rest till it’s warm. Fit a pastry bag with a star nozzle. Fill in the dough into the pastry bag.
- Heat up oil. Once heated, pipe 4-5 inches long churros into the oil, using a knife or spatula to ‘cut’ the dough from the tip. Fry 2-3 minutes on each side to get a nice golden brown colour.
- Using a slotted spoon or tongs, remove churros from the oil and place them onto a paper-toweled plate to soak up some of the oil.
- Mix caster sugar and cinnamon in a shallow plate. Lightly coat churros in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Heat up whipping cream in a pot and remove from heat. Add in dark chocolate pieces and stir continuously until chocolate has melted.
- Serve churros with dark chocolate sauce.
