In honor of my grandma and her fantastic food, I made pasteles. This is what they look like when you put them in the sink to drain after boiling them. Pasteles are Puerto Rican 🇵🇷 Christmas food. My grandma made them every Christmas. They are delicious 😋 😍 she fed everyone pasteles every year. People came from miles and miles away to enjoy and celebrate Christmas with us and to eat her pasteles. They normally are wrapped in banana leaves, but I can't get them here so I used foil. They are made with platanos (plantains), potatoes, and a delicious mixture of pork, onions, green peppers, tomato paste, garlic, salt, and pepper. Each one has one green olive in it except for one pastele. That one had two. If you got the one with two olives, you'd have great luck for the new year.
This is what they look like unwrapped. They get their color from me adding achiote to the batter of potatoes and platanos. They are delicious 😋 every time I make them, I can feel my grandma smiling down on me. It feels great. It tastes great. It's a great gift to have pasteles!!! Thank you, Grandma. I love and miss you very much 😍🥰❤️
