Pastel en Hoja

In Peru, this is known as a tamal. It consists of ground corn dough wrapped in banana leaves and stuffed with egg, olives, chicken or pork, and a seasoned sauté. It is tied with string or raffia and boiled, typically served as a starter for breakfast or at celebrations like weddings and quinceañeras (15th birthday parties). Similar versions include the humita, which is wrapped in corn husks, and the Amazonian juane, which is made with rice and chicken wrapped in bijao leaves (traditional for the Feast of Saint John).
