Choux pastry

125g Plain flour

225g water

60g butter

1/2 tsp salt

4 eggs

In a sauce pan melt the butter into the water...

add salt and bring to boil

Add the flour all at once and mix in the saucepan cooking out on the heat, stirring constantly till it leaves the sides of the pan.

Allow to cool slightly and add eggs one at a time - ether in a KitchenAid mixer or in a bowl using a wooden spoon. Be sure to mix each egg in well before adding the next. You are looking for a smooth thick batter that holds its shape when dropped off the spoon.
