Preparation

45 mins

Medium

Place the beef chambarete in a pot and cover with enough water, then add the onion, the head of garlic, the corn, and salt to taste. Cover the pot and cook over medium heat for 50 minutes or until the meat and corn are cooked. After the time is up, remove the garlic and onion. Reserve the broth with the meat and corn. While the meat is cooking, prepare the chochoyotes: Shape 1.5 cm balls of corn dough and, with your finger, press the center to create a small hollow, then repeat until you finish with the dough.

Fry the chochoyotes over medium-low heat in a deep pan with enough hot vegetable oil, making sure to coat them well with the oil; also, ensure they are golden brown and well cooked in the center. Once the dough balls are ready, remove, drain, and set aside.
