Churros — fried dough — made with an easy, delicious recipe. We recommend trying it if you haven't had it before.

1 cup water

5 tablespoons butter

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon sugar

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 eggs

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Nutella or melted chocolate

Powdered sugar for dusting

Grated lemon zest for topping — optional

Strawberries — optional

Put the water, butter, salt, and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat.
After the butter melts, add the flour and stir well with a wooden spoon until a cohesive dough forms. Stir for about 2 minutes, then remove from the heat.
Transfer the dough to a bowl and let it cool completely.
When the dough has cooled, add the first egg and mix well by hand, then add the second egg and the vanilla and knead again.
Cover the dough well and refrigerate for 24 hours.
The next day, shape the chilled dough into small rounds and deep-fry the balls immediately in plenty of hot oil.
Remove the churro balls once they turn golden and place them on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Dust with powdered sugar and lemon zest, and serve with room-temperature Nutella or chocolate sauce and fresh strawberries.
