Alcapurrias
Alcapurrias are traditional Puerto Rican snacks made from a dough of green bananas and yuca, which is seasoned and filled with a variety of ingredients. The dough is typically shaped into a cylindrical form and filled with meat, such as beef or pork, or sometimes seafood. They are then deep-fried until golden brown, resulting in a crispy exterior and a soft, flavorful interior.
These delicious treats are often enjoyed at festivals, parties, or as street food. Alcapurrias are a popular choice for those looking to experience authentic Puerto Rican cuisine, showcasing the island's rich culinary heritage and use of local ingredients.
