Steps
Savory Churros with Cheese Dip
- In a medium saucepan, add butter, water, milk, salt, and garlic powder. Heat on medium-low, mix, and bring to a simmer.
- Once the butter has melted, add flour and stir until a mass of dough forms and pulls away from the sides of the pan. Remove from heat and set aside to slightly cool.
- Scramble the eggs in a bowl. Vigorously stir in ⅓ of the egg mixture at a time, until a smooth, sticky dough forms.
- Heat oil in a deep pot to 350F. Transfer dough to a piping bag with a star tip. Squeeze strips and use a knife to cut each piece into the oil.
- Fry for about 5 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on a parchment-line tray.
- Combine seasonings in a bowl and toss the churros to coat well.
- In a small saucepan on medium heat, whisk butter and flour together. After 2 minutes, gradually add milk while whisking.
- Once the milk is heated, add cheese and salt. Stir well and cook for about 3-5 minutes. Serve as a dip with churros.
