Pasteles

In Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic, these wrapped goodies are made in large quantities during the holidays, often with several family members sharing in the tasks of preparation. A food processor or blender makes the job easier. If you can’t find banana leaves, you can use parchment paper. This recipe makes 16 to 20 pasteles.
