[[Image:Empanada Gourmet.jpg|250px|thumb|A gourmet version of a traditional dish]]
An '''empanada''' (not to be confused with the [[Portuguese language|Portuguese]] '''empada''', which is a different dish) is essentially a stuffed [[pastry]]. The name comes from the [[Spanish language|Spanish]] verb ''empanar'', meaning to wrap or coat in bread. Usually the empanada is made by folding a thin circular-shaped dough patty over the stuffing, creating its typical semicircular shape. Empanadas are also known by a wide variety of regional names (see the entries for the individual countries below).

It is likely that the empanadas in the Americas were originally introduced from [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]], [[Spain]], where an empanada is prepared similar to a pie that is cut in pieces, making it a portable and hearty meal for working people. The Galician empanada is usually prepared with [[cod|cod fish]] or chicken. Due to the large number of Galician immigrants in Latin America, the ''empanada gallega'' has also become very popular in that region.
The dish carried to the South America by colonists, where acquired its most popular form.
In [[Argentina]] and [[Uruguay]], the ''empanadas'' are considerated to be a national dish, and they have a protagonist role in the local cuisine.


|group2= Pip and Flinx
Although they can be found with a very extensive variety of stuffings, the most typical are the mincemeat, sauteed with seasonings. The mass, made with flour, water and ''fat of pella'', is prepared according to the form of cooking (fried or baked, the most common).

[[Image:Docena de Empanadas Caseras Argentinas.jpg|thumb|right|Argentine-style empanadas.]]
[[Argentina|Argentine]] empanadas are a common dish served at parties, as a starter, as a main course or in festivals. Shops specialize in freshly-made empanadas, with many flavors and fillings.


|group4= The Icerigger Trilogy
The [[dough]] is usually of [[wheat]] [[flour]] and [[lard]] with fillings differing from province to province: in some it is mainly [[chicken]] in others beef (cubed or ground depending on the region), perhaps spiced with [[cumin]] and [[paprika]], whilst others include [[onion]], boiled [[Egg (food)|egg]], [[olive]], [[raisin]]s of [[grape]]. Empanadas can be baked (more common in [[restaurant]]s and cities) or fried (more common in [[rural]] areas and at [[festival]]s). They may also contain [[cheese]], [[ham]] and cheese, [[fish]], ''[[humita]]'' ([[sweetcorn]] with [[white sauce]]) or [[spinach]]; a [[fruit]] filling is used to create a [[dessert]] empanada. Empanadas of the interior regions can be spiced with [[pepper]]s.

}}<noinclude>
In restaurants where several types are served, a ''[[repulgue]]'', or [[pattern]], is added to the [[pastry]] fold. These patterns, * which can be quite elaborate, distinguish the filling. In modern restaurants in Argentina, adventurous new fillings are being tried, with the traditional recipe being reinvented by modern [[chef]]s.

==== Province of Tucumán====

This province hosts The National Empanada Festival, in the city of [[Famaillá]].

*The only varieties are: [[beef]], [[mondongo]], chicken. Those of mondongo and chicken being the most authentic.
*Preferably cooked in a clay oven in a tray of fat. Failing this in a gas oven. **The empanada Tucumana is hearty - the meat filling being minced into 3 mm pieces, then part cooked and allowed to cool to while it absorbs juices. Cooking is finished along with the final baking.
*In addition to meat, spring onions, pimento and vinegar are added. Potatoes, peas, and olives are rarely used in the Tucuman preparation.
*The dough is simply prepared from flour, water, lard.

A traditional celebratory meal in Tucumán might include: empanadas, [[locro Tucumano]] and meat [[tamales]], and to drink wine from [[Amaicha]], [[Valle]], or [[Colalao]]. [[Cheese]] from [[Tafí]] with [[honey]] and/or [[bitter orange]] [[syrup]] as a dessert.

==== Province of Salta ====

Empanadas from Salta or "[[Empanadas salteñas]]" are characterized by the use of potatoes, the beef or goat meat and diverse varieties of red pepper.

==== Other provinces ====

*Province of [[Jujuy]] - [[empanadas Jujeñas]] are very similar to those from La Salta though peas, red peppers and goat meat is more favoured.
*Province of [[Santiago del Estero]] tend to commonly use peas, white onion, and hard boiled egg.
*Province of [[Córdoba Province (Argentina)|Cordoba]]- The empanadas from Cordoba are characterized by the use of raisins, potatoes, and sugar.
*Provinces of [[Catamarca Province|Catamarca]] and [[La Rioja]] - [[Empanadas Catamarqueñas]] and Las Riojan tend to have garlic, potatoes, goat meat , onion and olives as the fillings.
*Provinces of [[Cuyo]] and [[San Juan Province, Argentina|San Juan]] - The empanadas of these provinces are very similar to those of Chile having more onion, often spring onions.
*Province of [[Entre Rios]] - The empanadas here are often stuffed with [[milk]]-soaked [[rice]].
*Provinces of [[Corrientes]], [[Misiones]] and [[Formosa]] - Empanada pastry is occasionally made with [[manioc]] - [[mandioca]] flour, and although beef as a filling predominates fish is not unusual.
*Province of [[Buenos Aires]] and the city of Buenos Aires - The preferred empanada one is very similar to that of Tucuman but with a greater variety of fillings.
*Province of [[Pampas]] - Here empanadas reflect the crossing of various regional influences from Buenos Aires, Cordoba, Mendoza, and Patagonia. So that being so the most frequent empanada fillings can include red peppers, carrots, hard boiled egg, and currents.
*In the Patagónian provinces ([[Neuquén]], [[Negro River]], [[Chubut]], [[Santa Cruz Province (Argentina)|Santa Cruz]] and [[Tierra del Fuego]], [[Antártica]] and Islands of the South Atlantic) the most frequent filling is [[Lamb and mutton|lamb]] although in the coastal zones fish and, specially, seafood, is common. In Neuquén the usually [[condiment]] is [[merken]].

During [[Lent]] and [[Easter]], "[[empanadas de Cuaresma]]" based on fish (usually dogfish or tuna)are popular.

=== Bolivia ===
Bolivian Empanadas are made with beef or chicken, and usually contain potatoes, peas and carrots, as well as a hard boiled egg, an olive, or raisins. They are called salteñas and are moon-shaped pouches of dough customarily seamed along the top of the pastry. Salteñas are very juicy and generally sweeter than the Chilean variety, though there are different levels of spiciness (non sweetness). In the afternoons, fried cheese empanadas are served, sometimes brushed with sugar icing.

=== Brazil ===
[[Image:Empadinha.jpg|frame|Brazilian-style empanadas, called ''empadas'' or ''empadinhas''.]]
In [[Brazil]], ''empadas'', or ''empadinhas'' are a common ready-to-go lunch item available at [[Fast-food restaurant|fast-food counters]]. A wide variety of different fillings and combinations are available, with the most common being chicken, [[palmito]] (heart of palm), cheese, shrimp, and beef.

The filling of ''empadinhas'' often have olives or olive pieces mixed in. Many people see this as a crucial aspect of the food, originating the expression "olive in the ''empadinha''" for something important, desirable or beneficial.

The cheese ''empadinha'' is usually open, resembling a Portuguese ''[[Pastel de nata|Pastel de Belém]]''

=== Brazil (second view) ===

Though the similar name suggests related dishes, Brazilian ''empadinhas'' are very different from empanadas, and probably have distinct origins - possibly deriving from Portuguese ''empadão'', which resembles a ''tarte''.

Empanadas (Argentinian or Chilean style) are also available at a few Brazilian restaurants, never sold as ''empadinhas'', and are regarded as totally different dishes.

The dough used in ''empadinhas'' is based on flour and butter (or margarine), and is closer to the French ''pâte brisée'' (used in ''tartes'') than the dough used to make empanadas. ''Empadinhas'' are baked in small round metal moulds, about 5 cm diameter each. The crust crumbles when pressed, different from empanadas, which are usually firmer.

As noted above, ''empadinhas'' usually come with chicken filling, but also with beef, heart of palm, shrimp, cheese (gorgonzola, ''mineiro'' cheese, mixed cheeses, etc.), dried tomatoes, codfish, etc. They are widely available in Brazil, and commonly found in bakeries, luncheonettes, and gas stations; there are even some fast-food chains specialized in ''empadinhas'' (e.g. ''Empadaria da Vovó'', ''Rancho da Empada'', etc.) in most major Brazilian cities.

Usually cheese-filled "empadinhas" are opened, but you can find them closed in some places.

=== Chile ===
[[Image:S3020137.JPG|thumb|right|Chilean empanada]]
Chilean empanadas can have a wide range of fillings, but there are two basic types; one is baked and usually filled with "pino", and the other is fried and usually filled with cheese. Empanada fillings usually contain cheese and/or different types of seafood, for example; mussel, crab, or locos (abalone).
The most popular empanada filling is ''pino'', consisting traditionally of beef, onions, shortening, raisins, black olives, hard boiled eggs and hot peppers. Pino is a [[Mapuche]] recipe, and in [[Mapudungun]] it is called Pinu<ref>www.dibam.cl/patrimonio_cultural/pdf_revistas/patrimonio_lapapa.pdf</ref>, so this filling is a true mix of indigenous Chilean and Spanish heritage. <ref>https://openaccess.leidenuniv.nl/bitstream/1887/4864/1/Thesis.pdf</ref>

=== Colombia ===
[[Colombia]]n empanadas can be either baked or fried. The ingredients used in the filling can vary according to the region, but it will usually contain components such as salt, rice, beef or ground beef, shredded chicken, boiled potatoes, cheese, hard-boiled eggs, and peas. In the department of [[Valle del Cauca]], they are generally filled with ground meat, yellow potato or Criole potato. They are also served with peas, tomate, cilantro, and many other spices. In the city of [[Medellín]], [[Chorizo]] filled empanadas can be easily found, because of the city's love of pork and chorizo meats. In the Amazonic regions of Colombia, such as the area of the city of [[Leticia]], many sweet empanadas can be found, because of the high demand and high supply of tropical fruits of the region. Many of these empanadas are filled with some sort of jam consisting of these types of tropical fruits, such as [[lulo]], [[zapote]] and many more which can all be found in the Amazon regions of Colombia. However, radical variations can also be found (cheese empanadas, chicken-only empanadas, and even ''Trucha'' - Trout - empanadas). The pastry is mostly corn-based, although potato flour is also used.
[[Image:Empanada barranquillera.jpg|thumb|200px|Empanada costeña.]]
Colombian empanadas are usually served with ''[[Aji (food)|Aji]]'' (also called ''Picante'' by some people), a sauce made of cilantro, green onions, red or black pepper, vinegar, salt, and lemon juice. Bottled hot sauces are also used to add flavor to the empanadas. The sauce is normally prepared with a spicy kick, balancing very well with the nutty, neutral of the meat, potato and spices that make up the typical Colombian empanada. Colombian empanadas are also known to contain carrots and chicken. Another variety include Stuffed Potatoes (''Papas rellenas'') which is a variant that has potato in the pastry instead of maize dough and have round shapes.

In the [[Cauca]] department, the pipian empanadas are made with peanuts and a special type of potato called "Papa amarilla" due to its yellow color. In Colombia, empanadas can be easily found on street corners, as it is one of the most famous and popular foods in the general public, followed by [[Arepa]], and [[Pandebono]]. Many of the empanadas that are found in Colombia were/are homemade, and have been brought down through generations, eventually turning into a national obsession. One of the most famous bakeries in the Republic, more specifically based in [[Cali, Colombia]], called 'El Molino' introduced the Spinach Empanada, which is an empanada filled with both green spinach and cottage or Riccotta cheese. In the poorer areas of Colombia, the producers of these popular empanadas are made with the same spinach, but use Queso Campesino, Queso Paisa of [[Medellín]], or parmasan cheese instead of cottage or Ricotta cheese. Emapandas in Colombia are a favorite in most of the bigger cities, such as [[Cali]], [[Bogotá]], or [[Medellín]]. Nowadays, Colombian empanadas are one of the most ordered, and one of the most favorable side orders in many of the restaurants in Colombia.

=== Costa Rica ===
[[Costa Rica]]n empanadas are either filled with seasoned meats (pork, beef or chicken) or cheese, beans, cubed potato stew folded and then fried. These empanadas are normally made with corn dough. There is another version made with wheat dough and is typically sweet and baked, filled with guava, pineapple, chiverre or any other jelly or dulce de leche. Another popular version are empanadas that have been made with sweet plantain dough, filled with seasoned beans and cheese, and then fried.

=== Cuba ===
[[Cuban cuisine|Cuban]] empanadas are typically filled with seasoned meats (usually ground beef or chicken), folded into dough, and deep fried. Empanadas can also be made with cheese, guayaba, or a mixture of both.
These are not to be confused with Cuban ''pastelitos,'' which are very similar but use a lighter pastry dough and may or may not be fried. Cubans eat empanadas at any meal, but they usually consume them during lunch or as a snack.

=== Dominican Republic ===
Similar in their preparation (though often fried) and method of consumption to Cuban empanadas. More modern versions, promoted by some specialty food chains, include stuffing like [[pepperoni]] and cheese, [[conch]], Danish cheese and chicken, etc. A variety also exists in which the dough is made from [[cassava]] flour, called ''catibías''. Adobo seasoning, diced boiled eggs and raisins can be added as way to provide additional variety and enhance the flavor of the meat filling.

=== Ecuador ===
Very similar to those of their neighboring country, Colombia, Ecuadorian empanadas are made of corn seasoning or flour. Their components may include peas, potatoes, steamed meat known as ''carne guisada'', or many other varieties of vegetables. The many types of Ecuadorian empanadas include ''empanadas de arroz'' (rice empanadas), which are deep fried for added crispiness, and flour empanadas or ''empanadas de verde'' which are empanadas made from plantain. Empanadas are also followed by ''aji'' (a type of dipping sauce for added flavor), which varies by region. The major components of "aji", or "picante", as it is also known, are cilantro, juices from red peppers (for a spicy kick), lemon, Spanish, red, or green onion, and sometimes chopped tomato. In ''la costa'' , or the shore region of Ecuador, aji may contain only onions, chopped tomatoes, and lemon juice. and fruit empanadas; with such fillings as banana, apples, and pumpkin. There is also "empanadas de morocho", morocho is a special grain produced in the country.

=== El Salvador ===
Salvadoreños often use the term "empanadas" to mean an appetizer or dessert made of plantains stuffed with sweet cream. The plantains are then lightly fried and served warm with a sprinkle of sugar. They also sometimes include caramel and apples

=== Haiti===
In [[Haiti]], a meat-filled pastry similar to the empanada but with a thicker crust called a ''pate'' is regularly eaten on festive occasions. It is essentially a meat-filled [[turnover (food)|turnover]]. The dough is often filled with ground beef or chicken and topped with spices. The dough is then sealed and baked.

=== Jamaica ===
A Jamaican patty or pattie is a pastry that contains various fillings and spices baked inside a flaky shell, often tinted golden yellow with an egg yolk mixture or turmeric. It is made like a turnover but is more savory. As its name suggests, it is commonly found in Jamaica, and is also eaten in other areas of the Caribbean, like Costa Rica's Caribbean coast but most notably that of Haiti, in which the pastry is thick and crispy essentially a turnover. It is traditionally filled with seasoned ground beef, however, fillings now include chicken, vegetables, shrimp, lobster, fish, soy, ackee, mixed vegetables or cheese. In [[Jamaica]] the patty is often eaten as a full meal especially when paired with bread. It can also be made as bite-sized portions and is then referred to as a cocktail patty.

=== Mexico ===
[[Mexican cuisine|Mexican]] empanadas can be a dessert or breakfast item and tend to contain a variety of sweetened fillings; these include pumpkin, yams, sweet potato, and cream, as well as a wide variety of fruit fillings. Meat, cheese, and vegetable fillings are less common in some states, but still well-known and eaten fairly regularly. Depending on local preferences and particular recipes the dough can be based on wheat or corn. The state of [[Hidalgo (Mexico)|Hidalgo]] is famous for its empanadas, or [[pastes]], as they are locally known. These trace their origins from the [[Cornish pasties]] imported by British miners. In [[Chiapas]], empanadas filled with chicken or cheese are popular dishes for breakfast, supper or even as snacks.

===Panama===
Empanadas are usually filled with ground beef but sometimes may also be filled with shredded chicken, white cheese or yellow cheese. They are made of flour or cornmeal and usually deep fried, but can also be baked. In the city of Colon, due to a heavy caribbean influence, they also fill it with a plantain puree, bake it, and call it "plantain tart". They are smaller than their counterparts elsewhere in Latin America and are considered snack, appetizer, or luncheon food.

=== Peru ===
[[Image:Empanadas.JPG|200px|right|thumb|[[Peruvian cuisine|Peruvian]] empanadas]]
[[Peru]]vian empanadas are similar to Argentine empanadas, but slightly smaller. They are usually baked. The most common variety contains ground beef seasoned with cumin, hard-boiled egg, onion, olives and raisin; the dough is usually sprinkled with icing sugar. They are commonly sprinkled with lime juice before eating. Also very popular are cheese-filled (or cheese-and-ham-filled) ones.

Recently, "modern" empanadas, with a variety of filling have appeared, e.g.: chicken-and-mushrooms, shrimp or "aji de gallina".

In southern Peru, similar to Bolivia, you will also find "Salteñas" (Argentinian empanadas) or "Bolivianas" (very similar to Salteñas).

=== Philippines ===
[[Filipino cuisine|Filipino]] empanadas usually contain ground beef or chicken meat, potato, chopped onion, and raisins (somewhat similar to the Cuban "picadillo") in a sweetish wheat flour dough. Some Filipinos are not partial to the sweetish flavour notes and prefer empanadas that are closer to the Hispanic versions. There are doughy baked versions, as well as flaky fried versions. Often, to lower costs, potatoes are added as a filler, and olives-- relatively expensive in the Philippines-- are omitted.

However, empanadas in the northern Ilocos region are very different. These empanadas are made of a savory filling of green papaya, monggo beans and, upon request, chopped Ilocano sausage (''longganisa'') and/or an egg yolk. Rather than the soft, sweet dough favored in the Tagalog region, the dough used to enclose the filling is thin and crisp, mostly because Ilocano empanada uses rice flour, coloured orange with ''achuete'' (annatto), and is deep-fried rather than baked.

=== Portugal ===
In [[Portugal]], empadas are a common option for a small meal, found universally in patisseries and often being chosen as a good partner to a quick coffee. They are usually about the size of a golf ball, though size and shape changes from place to place or even from establishment to establishment. The most common fillings are chicken, beef, tuna, codfish and, more recently, mushrooms and vegetables, though this also varies from place to place. They aren't usually served hot.

=== Puerto Rico ===
[[Cuisine of Puerto Rico|Puerto Rican cuisine]] has several dishes related to the empanada. The closest to those of neighboring countries is called ''pastelillo'', and made of flour dough that is fried. They can be filled with ground beef or chicken. Also, 'empanadilla,' which is literally 'small empanada,' is the Puerto Rican word for [[Turnover (food)|turnover]]. Another dish called empanada is a [[beef steak]] or [[chicken]] breaded with crackercrumbs.

===United States===
[[Mexican cuisine|Mexican]] empanadas are commonly eaten in the [[United States]], especially in the Southwest. However, the [[Taco Bell]] chain serves the Caramel Apple Empanada, a popular dessert item that is basically an "[[Americanization|Americanized]]" version of the empanada, more closely resembling an "original" (1970s-80s era) [[McDonald's]] Apple Pie than anything else. It consists of sweet dough, deep-fried and filled with a gooey apple filling.

In the southeastern United States, there is a similarly prepared dessert often referred to as "fried pies." They typically consist of a pasty filling made from re-constituted dried fruit such as apples, apricots, or peaches. The filling is placed in a dough circle, folded over in half, and then fried.

===Uruguay===
[[Uruguayan]] empanadas are generally made out of wheat flour and can be fried or baked. There were introduced by the Spanish and Italian settlers in the middle of the 20th century. Argentine influence over the region has enriched the national cuisine by mixing new flavors and recipes.
The most common empanada is of ham and cheese, but there are also other kinds, such as those containing beef, olives, fish and spicy stuffing.
The most famous sweet empanadas in Uruguay are those that combine [[dulce de leche]], [[quince]] and [[chocolate]] covered by sugar or apple jam.

===Spain===
[[Image:Empanada.jpg|200px|thumb|Galician empanada]]
In [[Spain]] empanadas are made from a rather thin, pliant, but resilient wheat pastry. The filling varies, but tuna, beef or chicken are common, usually with tomato puree and onions in the mix. Spanish empanadas are baked.
In [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]], [[Spain]], the empanada is prepared similar to a pie, with [[cod|cod fish]] or chicken, the ''empanada gallega''.

=== Venezuela ===
[[Venezuela]]n empanadas use corn flour based dough and are deep fried. The stuffing varies according to region; most common are the cheese and ground beef empanadas. Other types use fish, "caraotas" or black beans, oyster, clams and other types of seafood popular in the coastal areas, especially in [[Isla Margarita|Margarita Island]].
