Instructions
  1. Melt yeast into lukewarm water, knead all the ingredients except egg and form a smooth loaf.
  2. Let the loaf rise in a bowl, covered with cling film, for about one hour.
  3. Spread the dough with a rollpin, about 1/2 inch tall. Cut rectangles, the size you like ( small are ok as finger food, bigger can be cut in half and stuffed like a sandwich; if you prefer you can bake it as a single, big focaccia), brush with beaten egg and let them rise again into the baking tin covered with a cloth for about 30- 40 minutes.
  4. They will not rise a lot, it's ok. Bake at 356°F for 20-30 minutes, they have to reach a gold colour but pay attention as they can turn black quite quickly.

Instructions
  1. Bring water with lemon zest to a boil, when boiling remove the zest, add salt and sift flour in beating well. Beat untill you have no lumps left.
  2. Set aside for about 1 hour.
  3. Heat frying oil. The recipe I found says to form churros with a sac- a- poche or the specific "churrera" on a floured surface, then to close them in a ring shape. I only squeezed the dough into the frying oil; dough is not that soft but you can do it without big fuss if you have a good sac- a- poche with a big star nozzle.
  4. When the churros are gold on both sides remove them from oil, drain excess on paper towel, sprinkle with caster sugar and serve immediately with hot, thick chocolate or black coffee.
