âIn New Mexico, we love to make these yummy fried pies for dessert. Because they call for flour tortillas and convenient canned pie filling, theyâre a snap to put together when time is short.â âTerry Dominguez, Silver City, New Mexico Ingredients:
2 cans (21 ounces each) cherry pie filling |
6 flour tortillas (10 inches) |
oil for deep-fat frying |
confectioners' sugar |
Directions:
1. Spoon pie filling down the center of each tortilla; fold sides and ends over filling and roll up. Seal with toothpicks.
2. In an electric skillet or deep fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry chimichangas, a few at a time, for 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Dust with confectionersâ sugar. Serve immediately. Yield: 6 servings.
