Pre heat the oven to 180ºC/160ºC fan.
Line a large baking tray with baking parchment or a bake-o-glide sheet (or similar).
Sift the flour (45g strong white flour and 40g plain flour) onto a sheet of baking parchment (this will make it easy to tip into the mixture quickly later).
Put the butter (60g), salt (¼ tsp), caster sugar (1 tsp) and water (120ml) into a medium sized saucepan. Heat on a medium-high heat until the butter has melted and the mixture is boiling.
Tip the flour into the butter mixture and mix together as quickly as possible until they have formed a lump of dough.
Continue to stir vigourously for 2 minutes and then remove from the heat and put into a large bowl. Beat the dough with an electric mixer for a few minutes until it has cooled.
Add the first two eggs and beat the mixture until fully combined. Beat the 3rd egg in a separate bowl or jug and gradually add it to the mixture (beat well after each addition) until you have the right consistency - When you lift out the beaters the dough should just run from them in a steady stream, however you should still be able to see the pattern this makes on the surface of the dough in the bowl. Remember to add the 3rd egg gradually - it's easy to add more but you can't take it away!
Spoon the mixture into a piping bag, and snip the end so you have a hole about 1½cm in diameter.
Pipe the pastry onto your prepared baking tray in 2½cm rounds (1") about 2½cm apart (don't put them too close together or you'll end up with one giant profiterole!).
Wet your finger and gently smooth the pointy areas where you removed the piping bag (this will give you nice round profiteroles).
Place into the oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. A tip to tell if they're cooked is to lift them up. If they're cooked they'll feel pretty weightless like a ping-pong ball. If they still feel like there's a little weight there then pop them back into the oven for a couple more minutes and check again.
Once cooked, pierce the bottom of each profiterole with a skewer - this will help it to dry and and give you nice crisp pastry.
Transfer to a wire rack to cook.
