Carimañolas are a delicious Panamanian snack made with yuca (cassava) dough and filled with ground meat or cheese. The yuca dough is shaped into a cylindrical form, filled with the desired filling, and then deep-fried until golden and crispy. Carimañolas are often enjoyed as a midday snack or appetizer and are loved for their crispy exterior and flavorful filling. They are commonly served with a side of salsa or hot sauce for dipping.
