Tequeños are a popular Venezuelan appetizer made with cheese wrapped in dough and deep-fried until golden and crispy. In this innovative recipe, the traditional dough is replaced with ripe plantains, giving the tequeños a sweet and savory twist. To make tequeños de plátano, ripe plantains are mashed and mixed with flour, salt, and cheese to form a dough. The dough is then shaped into small cylinders and deep-fried until golden and crispy. The result is a delicious and unique appetizer that combines the sweetness of the plantains with the gooeyness of the melted cheese. Tequeños de plátano can be served as a snack or as part of a larger meal, and they are sure to be a hit at any gathering or party.
