Method
- 1 Boil the potatoes for 20 minutes, then mash them and let them cool completely.
- 2 Fry the chorizo for 7 minutes until fluffy and the fat renders out, then mix with mashed potatoes and chopped red onion.
- 3 Mix the masa dough with 65 ml of warm water, roll into 4 balls, then flatten them to a thickness of 4 mm.
- 4 Place the filling in the center, wrap it tightly, and shape it into a boat with pointed ends; the wrap must be absolutely airtight because if the filling bursts open, the boiling oil will splatter.
- 5 Deep-fry at 170 degrees for 4 minutes until golden brown, and serve with sour cream, fresh cheese, and chili sauce.
