CHOCOLATE ECLAIRS MADE WITH OIL

Recipe and photo: Michelle Feast

• Dough:
• 250 ml (1 cup) water
• 125 ml (½ cup) oil
• 250 ml (1 cup) cake flour
• 3 eggs
• Extra:
• whipped cream
• caramel, optional
• melted chocolate
• Allow water and oil to boil in saucepan.
• Remove saucepan from heat, add flour and mix.
• Carry on mixing over very low heat until paste forms a ball and sides of saucepan is clean. Place ball into a mixing bowl allow to cool.
• Once cooled, beat in eggs one at a time (blending well after each addition).
• Pipe or spoon mixture into non-stick or greased baking tray and bake in preheated oven at 180 °C for 45 minutes.
• Fill with whipped cream and caramel (I just filled it with cream) and dipped in chocolate.
• Nota: Room het ek geskat, ek het so halwe koppie room gevat en geklits. Sjokolade – 10 blokkies maar daar het oorgebly, jammer die resep sê nie hoeveel nie, ek het net aangemaak.
