In a big saucepan, mix olive oil, water, milk, and salt. Put the saucepan on the stove and turn the heat to high. Wait until it starts boiling, then take it off the heat immediately.
Add tapioca flour and garlic to the mixture. Stir it until it becomes smooth. Leave it alone for 10 to 15 minutes.
Mix cheese and eggs into the tapioca mixture. Stir until everything is combined. It will look chunky, like cottage cheese.
Take about ¼ cup of the dough and shape it into a ball. Keep doing this until all the dough is used up. Put the dough balls on a baking sheet that has not been greased.
Put the baking sheet in the oven that you preheated earlier. Let it bake until the tops of the dough balls turn lightly brown, which should take around 15 to 20 minutes.
