Boil water in a pot for the chapaleles.

Prepare a small amount of cornmeal dough based on the number of people.

Add hot water to the cornmeal and mix until a dough forms.

Roll out the dough to a desired thickness, not too thick or too thin.

Cut the rolled dough into desired shapes.

Once the water is boiling, add the chapaleles to the pot.

Cook the chapaleles until they float and the edges start to bend, then remove them from the water.

In a separate pot, melt butter and add chopped garlic and salt.

Serve the chapaleles with melted butter and garlic, or with sweet toppings like sugar, honey, or jam.
