Repeat process with remaining dough (frying no more than 5 at once, separate with metal tongs if they stick a little). Let cool for a few minutes then serve warm.
if u don’t have egg we can also make it eggless :) just add a bit less flour to get a thinner texture (but thick in enough that it doesn’t stick to ur hands) and just do the same thing 🫠
These look great! You should try Spanish churros too! They don't have cinnamon or sugar and they taste great, especially when served with rich hot melted chocolate, it's called churros con chocolate
