Grandma Gabriella’s Homemade Churros: True Tradition 🥖 🍬
Grandma Gabriela’s brownie recipe is a classic recipe that has been passed down from generation to generation and I want to share it with you today. Churros is a typical cuisine of Andalusia and other parts of Spain, such as Madrid. While the process is simple to make, it takes care to create the golden, crispy finish that we all love so much.
Ingredients for Abuela-Gabriella Brownies:
1/2 warm water
1/2 kg pastry flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 pack of baking powder (16 g)
Frying oil (appropriate amount)
Sprinkle with sugar (optional)
Instructions for making brownies
Prepare the dough:
Combine flour, yeast, and salt in a large bowl. While mixing with a spoon or spatula, gradually add warm water until mixed into a dough that cuts easily when lifted with a spoon.
Add a tablespoon of vinegar and continue stirring until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Let the dough stand:
Cover the dough with a clean cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes. This time allows the yeast to do its job and give the dough a texture suitable for frying.
Fried chocolate brownies
Pour a sufficient amount of oil into an oil pan. The oil should be very hot before frying.
Roll the bread into a wheel shape directly with a rolling pin in the fryer. If you don’t have a chocolate cake maker, you can also use a piping bag with a star nozzle.
After frying until golden on one side, turn it over with chopsticks or spatula so that the other side is golden too. The process takes a few minutes.
Drain and serve:
Remove the brownies from the oil and place them on absorbent paper to remove excess oil.
If desired, sprinkle with white sugar before serving.
Tips for making crispy and delicious brownies:
Before you start frying, make sure the oil is very hot so the brownies don’t get greasy.
You can serve your brownies with a cup of hot chocolate, as is customary in many parts of Spain.
Now, Grandma Gabriela’s homemade brownies are ready! A classic of traditional cuisine that will leave you with an endless aftertaste.
