Ingredients

  • Maravilla Oil
  • 250 g of Harina Selecta®
  • 250 g of Cotija cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • 80 g unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 5 g of white sugar
  • 40 ml of milk

Preparation

  • In a bowl, add the Harina Selecta®, butter, milk, eggs, sugar, and salt, and stir well until a smooth batter forms.
  • Once the dough is smooth, shape it into a ball and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • In the meantime, you can cut the cheese into strips. Set aside.
  • In a pot, add enough Aceite Maravilla and heat it over medium-high heat.
  • Once the dough has rested for the specified time, dust the work surface with flour and roll out the dough with a rolling pin until it is half a centimeter thick.
  • Cut the dough into long strips, moisten each strip with water, and use your fingers to wrap it around the strip of cheese, making sure there are no gaps.
  • As you assemble the tequesitos, place them in the hot oil, and once they are golden brown, remove them and place them on paper towels.
  • Serve them fresh off the grill and top them with your favorite sauce.
