+
+Spanish Doughnut
+Please be warned, this recipe has high difficulty and involves deep frying. Please don face-mask and glasses/shades to protect your face from hot oil in the event of Churro explosion! These Churros are not worth your beauty and/or capacity for sight. Thank-you
+
+## Ingredients
+
+- Butter 50g
+- Vanilla-extract 1/2 tsp
+- Flour 250g ( it should be from an unopened fresh bag so liquid absorption is well permitted )
+- Bicarbonate-of-soda 1 tsp
+- Sunflower oil 1 litre!
+- Bread chunks ( for testing oil heat )
+
+For the Sauce:
+- Dark chocolate, broken into chunks 200g
+- Double Cream 100ml
+- Milk 100ml
+- Golden Syrup 3 tbsp
+- Vanilla Extract 1/2 tsp
+
+For the Cinnamon-sugar:
+- Caster sugar 100g
+- Cinnamon 2 tsp
+
+## Directions
+
+1. Melt the butter.
+2. Boil kettle (use stove if kettless), measure 300ml of the boiling water into a jug.
+3. Add butter to jug, along with Vanilla-extract.
+4. Sift flour and bicarbonate-of-soda into a large bowl with a pinch of Salt. Make a well in the centre, then pour the contents of the jug into it and very swiftly beat the flour until there are no lumps. Let rest for 10-15 min while you make the sauce.
+5. Put all the sauce ingredients into a pan gently melt together, stirring, until you have a mooth shiny sauce, keep warm on low heat.
+6. Fill a large saucepan/wok so it is 1/3 full of oil. Be careful in this step and ensure you know how to deep-fry safely. Heat until a chunk of break browns in 45s-1min.
+7. Mix the caster sugar and cinnamon.
+8. Obtain a piping bag, attach a 'star' nozzle 1-2cm wide. Fill with your dough after it has rested.
+9. Pipe 2-3 strips into pan/wok. Fry until golden brown. Exercise extreme caution, if air bubbles form in the Churros they can explode. This risk is aggravated by unfresh flour and too hot oil.
+10. Remove Golden brown Churros, drain on a kitchen paper lined tray.
+11. Cover with Cinnamon-sugar, serve with sauce for dipping.
