Chipa (Paraguay)
Serves 8
Ingredients
Method
500 g. Tapioca Starch
200 g. Cheese, Grated
200 ml. Milk
4 Eggs
100 g. Butter, Melted
Preheat your oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the tapioca starch and cheese.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter. Gradually add the liquid mixture to the tapioca and cheese, stirring until a sticky dough forms.
Divide the dough into small pieces, rolling each one into a ball and then shaping it into a ring. Place the rings on the prepared baking tray.
Bake the chipa in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until they are golden and puffed up. The chipa is best enjoyed warm, so serve it as soon as it is cool enough to handle.
