Typical Food - Filled Fried Pastries



They are a frequent company for the cooked mate of the evening or for the brewed mate. They are made in several ways and with different kinds of dough. Today you can make them with puff pastry that you can buy in the stores. You can also use the dough of the "tortas fritas", cut in big squares, some 8cm each side. For each pastelito you will use two squares of dough, in one of them you will place a little cube of sweet potato jelly or quince jelly.

You have to cover this square with the other one, seeing that the corners of the bottom square do not coincide with those of the top one, so that you make an eight pointed star. You must moisten the part around the cube of jelly with salty water in order to stick the doughs, pressing with your fingers to mark the cube. They are fried in abundant lard and then sprinkled with sugar.
