Churros
I got the recipe from:
http://nasilemaklover.blogspot.com/2010/09/churros.html#more
Slight modification: Instead of putting one egg plus two egg york, I put 3 eggs instead since my batter turned out to be quite dry.
Notes: I didn't have a piping bag handy, hence I hand roll the batter into long thin strip and fry them.
