- We will make the dough with the flour, water, margarine, a tablespoon of olive oil and a little salt. Knead slowly, avoiding lumps. When we have the finished dough, we will let it rest for about 30 minutes.
- Once the dough has rested, we will cook the sweet potatoes. We have to leave them at a point where they are soft and do not get completely brown. We will mash them until we get a homogeneous dough.
- We will mix the sweet potatoes with the almonds, sugar, lemon zest and ground cinnamon.
- Sprinkle flour on the table, roll out the dough with a rolling pin and form 8-centimetre circles to make some nice Canarian sweet potato trouts.
- To make sure they turn out well, we should not put too much filling in the wafers because this will cause them to split open and get ruined when we fry them.
- Fry with very hot oil.
- We remove it on absorbent paper to eliminate excess oil.
Here we have presented the recipe for making the typical Canarian sweet potato trout. It is a simple recipe, with a preparation process that is not very costly and inexpensive. Although it is a typical Christmas dessert, we can make it and find it in establishments throughout the year.
