Cheesecake Filling

Fried Wrapper

Strawberry Topping

Method

Cheesecake Filling

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheesecake Filling

    In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add granulated sugar and mix well. Add vanilla extract and the egg, mixing until fully incorporated. Set aside.

Fried Wrapper

  1. 2

    Make the Fried Wrapper

    In a separate bowl, mix the flour, egg, water, and salt until a smooth dough forms. Knead the dough for a few minutes, then cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Assembly and Frying

  1. 3

    Assemble the Xango

    Roll out the rested dough into thin rectangles. Spoon a portion of the cheesecake filling onto each rectangle, then roll them up tightly and seal the edges.

  2. 4

    Fry the Xango

    In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the rolled Xango in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Strawberry Topping

  1. 5

    Prepare the Strawberry Topping

    In a bowl, combine fresh strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Toss gently and let sit for 15 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices.
