Start by mixing flour in a bowl.

Pour in 2 eggs and evaporated milk into the mixture.

Add butter, about a quarter stick, and a teaspoon of salt.

Add sugar, 2 tablespoons plus half a tablespoon, and mix everything together by hand.

Gradually pour in water while mixing until the dough is moist and well combined.

Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it reaches a smooth consistency.

Place the dough in a container and set it aside to prepare the meat filling.

For the meatballs, mix 1 pound of ground beef with a blended mixture of cilantro, garlic, and onion.

Add salt to taste and any preferred spices for flavor.

Shape the mixture into small meatballs.

Heat oil in a skillet and fry the meatballs until they are cooked through and golden brown.

Prepare the sauce with tomato sauce and mushrooms, adding spices as desired.

Shape the dough into circles, fill with meatballs, and fold over, sealing the edges.

Fry the filled hojaldres in hot oil until golden brown and crispy.
