Instructions to make Simple and Plump Choux Pastry:
  1. Line the baking sheet with baking paper and put in the oven. Preheat the oven to 190°C. (I used a 600W oven.)
  2. Sift together the cake flour and strong flour. Beat the eggs.
  3. Put the water, butter (cut into small pieces), and milk into a pan and bring to a boil. Turn the heat off when the butter has melted completely.
  4. Add the sifted flour all at once, and heat over low for 20 seconds, beating constantly until all lumps are gone.
  5. Add the beaten eggs to the mixture, a little at a time, and beat quickly. It is difficult to beat at first, though.
  6. If you hold the spatula and the paste drops very slowly, not runny at all, it is ready.
  7. Pipe the paste (about 4 cm in diameter) onto the heated baking paper. To make them voluminous, pile 3 to 4 layers so they look like soft serve ice cream cone tops.
  8. Moisten your finger with water and touch the tip on top to flatten.

  14. I made these with strawberries and custard.
