In a heat-resistant pot, add all the liquids: milk, water, and oil.

Add salt to the liquids and stir for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is warm, not hot.

In a separate bowl, place the flour and create a well in the center.

Add the warm liquid mixture into the well along with the yeast.

Stir the mixture in the center for a few seconds and let it rest for 10-15 minutes to activate the yeast, covering it to keep it warm and dark.

After 15 minutes, mix everything together using a wooden spoon or your hands.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for 10-15 minutes until it no longer sticks to your hands or the surface.

Form the dough into a ball and place it in a bowl with a little oil to prevent drying out, covering it with a cloth or plastic to rest for 1 hour in a warm place.

Cut cheese into sticks approximately 8 cm long and 1.5 cm wide.

After the dough has rested, sprinkle flour on the surface and divide the dough in half, keeping the other half covered.

Roll out the dough with your hands and then with a rolling pin, adding flour underneath and on top to prevent sticking.

Cut the dough into strips about 2 fingers wide.

Wrap each cheese stick with the dough, sealing the edges tightly.

Refrigerate the wrapped tequeños for 25 minutes before frying.

Fry the tequeños in medium heat oil for less than 5 minutes until golden brown.
