Traditional churros dishes can be thick or thin & are deep-fried.They are then sprinkled with some sugar & served alone or with drinks such as café con leche, hot chocolate, or champurrado. There are a number of variations.
The calientes of Andalusia are deep fried and simply cut into a spiral shape. Straight churros dishes are filled with a number of fresh fruits or sweets such as chocolate in Mexico, Brazil, Peru, Cuba & other South American regions. Churros in the U.S. regions are often served with a fresh sugar-cinnamon combination.
