Belizean Garnaches image

I love this street vendor dish, although I wish I could try it right in Belize! Day old or stale corn tortillas are preferred as they have a lower moisture content and fry up better. There are other toppings that you can use on this but I like this traditional version. Enjoy!

I was a bit disappointed with these garnaches. They were a bit bland and the texture was a bit too soft.
