Add 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the water.

Add 2 tablespoons of butter and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla essence.

Mix all the ingredients until the water comes to a boil.

Once the water is boiling, turn off the flame.

Add 1 cup of all-purpose flour to the boiling water and mix until it forms a dough.

Transfer the dough to a bowl and spread it out with a spatula.

Let the dough sit for 5 minutes to warm up.

Add 1 egg to the dough and mix well until fully incorporated.

Transfer the dough into a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle.

Grease a tray and line it with butter paper.

Pipe the churros onto the tray, typically about 5 inches long, but you can adjust the size as desired.

Place the churros in the freezer to set.

Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat for frying.

Fry the churros on low flame initially until they float to the surface.

Then, fry them on medium to low flame until they turn golden brown, about 5 to 6 minutes.

Remove the churros using a spider or strainer to drain excess oil.

In a bowl, mix 1/2 cup of castor sugar with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder to make cinnamon sugar.

Coat the fried churros in the cinnamon sugar mixture.

Serve the churros, preferably with chocolate sauce.
