In Venezuelan cuisine, an hallaca (alt. spelling, "hayaca") is a mixture of beef, pork, capers, raisins, and olives wrapped in maize (cornmeal dough) bound within plantain leaves with string and steamed afterwards. It is typically served during the Christmas holiday. Hallacas are also known in the eastern part of Colombia with a similar recipe.
