STUFFED SOPAPILLAS



Stuffed Sopapillas image

My mom has made these for as long as I can remember. I didn't know till I was married that sopapillas are usually a dessert. They take a little work and practice, but it is well worth it! If they are made correctly They should puff up with a hollow center. If yours don't puff up like they are suppose to just pile the filling on top like a Navajo taco!!

1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon cornmeal

CHILEAN-STYLE SOPAIPILLAS



Chilean-Style Sopaipillas image

This is a traditional Chilean snack, or maybe an appetizer. The truth is that it's a snack eaten during winter time, especially when it rains. It is typical to arrive home after walking through the rainy streets of Santiago and sit down to have a cup of tea and eat a couple of sopaipillas. You can also eat ones sold by street vendors, but they usually don't taste as good as home-made ones. If you can't find zapallo, pumpkin is a good substitute.

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Pastries

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

9 ounces zapallo squash
4 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
10 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cups canola oil for pan-frying

Steps:

  • Peel, seed, and cut the zapallo into chunks. Place in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until zapallo is soft and easily pierced with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and allow to cool slightly.
  • Mix the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a mixing bowl, and set aside. Stir together the squash and melted butter. Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture until blended. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until soft and satiny, adding a little more flour if necessary. Cover dough with a towel and allow to rest 15 minutes.
  • Roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thick, and cut into 3 inch diameter circles. Poke each circle a few times with a fork to make holes and prevent rising.
  • Pour vegetable oil into a large, deep skillet and heat over medium-high heat until hot, 385 degrees F (195 degrees C). Place several of the dough circles into hot oil; cook until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Cook remainder of dough circles in batches.

Tips:

  • Use a large, deep pot for frying the sopapillas to prevent splattering.
  • Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the sopapillas. If the oil is not hot enough, the sopapillas will absorb too much oil and become greasy. If the oil is too hot, the sopapillas will cook too quickly and be hard and crispy.
  • Fry the sopapillas in batches to prevent overcrowding the pot and causing the oil temperature to drop.
  • Use a slotted spoon to remove the sopapillas from the oil and drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Serve the sopapillas hot with your favorite toppings, such as honey, cinnamon sugar, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Sopapillas are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be filled with a variety of sweet or savory fillings. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy snack or a hearty and satisfying meal, sopapillas are sure to please everyone at your table.
