Ingredients to make Venezuelan Cheese Tequeños:
- 500 grams of dough for tequeños
- 500 grams of cheese to gratin
- 1 pinch of flour
- Oil for frying
How to make Venezuelan Cheese Tequeños:
The first step to make the Venezuelan cheese tequeños will be to sprinkle a pinch of flour on a smooth and clean surface. On this surface, spread the dough for tequeños with the help of a roller, until it is very thin, and cut strips 2 cm wide. Also cut the cheese into sticks about 1 cm wide.
Roll the cheese sticks diagonally, making sure there are no holes in the dough, otherwise the cheese will come out through the holes when frying. Roll the rest of the cheese sticks with the dough for tequeños. Heat plenty of oil in a frying pan or saucepan and fry the tequeños until the dough is well cooked and they take on a slightly golden color. Drain excess oil from tequeños and serve while hot.
