Composition / ingredients
Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
Prepare the necessary ingredients for making eclairs. Eggs should be at room temperature, not small.
Step 2:
Cut the butter into pieces, put it in a saucepan. Add water, milk, salt. Put on moderate heat.
Step 3:
Heat the mass to a boil, stirring constantly so that the butter completely melts.
Step 4:
Pre-sift the flour. As soon as the liquid mixture boils, immediately pour in all the flour, while actively stirring the mass.
Step 5:
The mass should be homogeneous, moving away from the walls of the pan. Warm the dough over low heat while stirring for 1-2 minutes so that the flour is well brewed. Remove the pan from the stove.
Step 6:
I immediately beat all the eggs and add portions to the dough. You can enter one egg at a time.
Step 7:
Let the dough cool down to a slightly warm state. Add about 1/4 of the egg mixture (or 1 egg).
Step 8:
Beat the egg into the dough. Add the next egg only after the previous one is completely connected to the dough. So enter all the eggs.
Step 9:
The finished dough turns out to be viscous, smooth, homogeneous, slowly draining from the spatula.
Step 10:
On a baking sheet greased with a thin layer of vegetable oil, put the eclairs at a distance of 2 cm from each other. I have all the eclairs not included on one sheet. In total, 35 eclairs turned out, I made them small.
Step 11:
Bake eclairs in a preheated 180 degree oven for 30 minutes. During baking, it is better not to open the oven so that the eclairs do not settle due to the temperature difference. Ready eclairs to cool.
Step 12:
Prepare the ingredients for the fillings. I made 2 options.
Step 13:
For one filling, hard-boiled egg, cool in cold water, peel, grate on a fine grater. Similarly, grind hard cheese. Wash the dill, dry it, chop it finely.
Step 14:
Combine the ingredients of the filling, add mayonnaise, mix.
Step 15:
For another filling, pre-defrost the shrimp, boil in boiling salted water. I have unpeeled king prawns, I cooked them for 7 minutes. Remove the shrimp and let it cool.
Step 16:
Garlic, peel, wash, pass through a press or grind on a grater.
Step 17:
Peel and finely chop the shrimp. You can chop the shrimp in a blender, then the filling will be pasty.
Step 18:
Combine the shrimp, cottage cheese, garlic, mix. It seemed to me that the mass was too thick, I added a couple of spoonfuls of cream.
Step 19:
Cut the eclairs on one side not to the end (or cut them completely lengthwise) and fill with filling. With this amount of filling, I filled a little more than half of the eclairs. The appetizer is ready. Bon appetit!

.
There are many filling options. These are various salads, pates, fish fillings, mushroom, etc.
If you bake eclairs in advance, it will take a little time to prepare snacks. I often cook eclairs for the future, freezing them for a while. And when an unexpected visit of guests is expected, custard blanks come in very handy. It is very comfortable.
