Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, about 20 minutes.

Drain potatoes and let cool slightly before peeling.

Mash the potatoes in a large bowl until smooth.

Add cheese, corn flour, butter, onion, salt, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes.

Mix until well combined and a dough forms.

Divide the dough into equal portions and shape each into a flat disc.

Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each disc and fold over to seal.

Press the edges to ensure they are tightly closed.

Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the puca capas.

Steam the puca capas for about 15-20 minutes until cooked through.

Remove from the pot and let cool slightly before serving.

Garnish with chopped cilantro and green onions.

Serve with sour cream and chili peppers on the side.
