Chorizo Churros With Aioli Dip
Chorizo Churros with Aioli Dip is a delightful and savory twist on the classic churros, originating from Madrid cuisine. These crispy churros are infused with the smoky and spicy flavors of chorizo, and served with a creamy aioli dip, making them a perfect appetizer or snack for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup diced chorizo
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- In a saucepan, heat the water, olive oil, garlic, salt, paprika, and black pepper over medium heat. Bring to a boil.
- Add the diced chorizo to the boiling water mixture and cook for 2-3 minutes until the chorizo is fully cooked and the flavors have infused into the liquid.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and gradually stir in the flour until a smooth dough forms.
- Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat.
- Pipe the dough into the hot oil, using a knife to cut the dough, forming churros. Fry until golden brown and crispy, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and lemon juice to make the aioli dip. Serve the chorizo churros with the aioli dip on the side.
