Easy Homemade Hearts of Palm Filling for Pastels (Recheio de pastel de palmito)

Ingredients

300g hearts of palm, chopped
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
200ml whole milk
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste

Where to find ingredients

You can find hearts of palm in jars or cans in the international aisles of major supermarkets. If fresh hearts of palm are unavailable, the canned variety is the standard substitute for this recipe. Butter, flour, and milk are available in the dairy and baking sections of any local grocery store.

Preparation method

  1. In a pan, sauté the chopped onion and garlic in butter until soft and translucent.
  2. Add the chopped hearts of palm to the pan and mix well with the aromatics.
  3. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture, stirring for about 1 minute to cook the flour slightly.
  4. Gradually pour in the milk, whisking or stirring constantly to prevent any lumps from forming.
  5. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, until the mixture thickens into a creamy consistency.
  6. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  7. Remove from heat and allow the filling to cool completely before using it in your pastels.
