directions

Gulab Jamun Churros- prep
Step 1

For the churros: Add water, butter, sugar and salt to a medium-sized pot and bring it to a boil.

Step 2

Add flour and ground cardamom to that mixture. Cook and stir continuously with a spatula until the mixture comes together, does not stick to the pot, and is smooth.

Step 3

Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let it cool for 5 to 8 minutes (it should be warm to the touch). Add egg to the flour mixture and using an electric mixer or whisk, mix it all together until smooth and shiny.

Step 4

Transfer the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a star-tip nozzle.

Step 5

Heat the vegetable oil in a pot to fry the churros. Once hot enough, start piping the churro dough into the hot oil. Be careful while frying and use a knife or scissors to get clean cut edges. Once the churros are nicely golden brown, take them out and lay them on tissue paper to remove any excess oil.
