Where to find ingredients
Look for the cheeses in the dairy aisle of your local supermarket, at cheese counters, or in a fresh-food market. If needed, gorgonzola can be substituted with another blue cheese, but keep the original cheese as the best option.
Preparation method

- Add oregano to taste to the cheese mixture.
- Stir all the ingredients gently until well combined.
- Use the filling cold to assemble the pastéis.
- Make sure to seal the edges well so the filling does not leak during cooking.
