Homemade Churros Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup water
• 2 ½ tablespoons sugar
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• Oil for frying
• ½ cup sugar (for coating)

Instructions:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine water, sugar, salt, and vegetable oil. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then remove from heat.
2. Stir in the flour until the mixture forms a ball of dough.
