About this

Empanadas are a staple in Argentine cuisine, consisting of dough pockets filled with ingredients like seasoned ground beef, chicken, ham and cheese, or vegetables, often spiced with onions, olives, and hard-boiled eggs. They are typically baked or fried until golden and crispy, and vary by region—such as the juicy, oven-baked versions from Salta or the fried ones from Tucumán. Commonly enjoyed as a quick snack, appetizer, or main dish at gatherings, they reflect the country's blend of indigenous, Spanish, and Italian influences.
