Chorizo Churros With Aioli Dip

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

  1. In a saucepan, heat the water, olive oil, garlic, salt, paprika, and black pepper over medium heat. Bring to a boil.
  2. 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.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and gradually stir in the flour until a smooth dough forms.
  4. Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
