What to do:
Step by step:
1) First, separate the egg yolks and beat them until stiff peaks form using a mixer. Then, still using the mixer, add the sugar and let it mix with the egg yolks. To complete this step, carefully add the yeast.
2) Tip: Regarding the filling, the most recommended is dulce de leche, but if the cook feels inspired, he can use whatever filling he prefers.
3) Then, with the mixer off, carefully add the flour and, using a spoon, begin to spread the flour throughout the dough. Only after this step is it allowed to turn the mixer back on.
4) Now, take a large baking tray and cover it with parchment paper without leaving any free space, then pour the batter into the tray and use a spoon or spatula to divide the batter evenly into the container.
5) Now, place the baking tray in the oven at 250 degrees for 15 minutes, then let the tray cool before moving on to the next step.
6) Now, for the filling, using a pan, add the cream together with the condensed milk and cook over medium heat until it comes away from the pan.
7) Next, prepare the syrup. Heat the water until it boils. Then, add the powdered sugar, stirring well until combined. Leave it in a double boiler and add the lemon juice.
8) Now, go to the dough and start making balls with your hands, as the bem-casado has a round shape.
9) And to fill it, just cut it in half and fill it with the filling you chose. And that's it, the dessert is on the table.
