I’ve got Filipino Empanada in my third-world kitchen! Empanada or Empanadas is a Spanish Influenced dish that is great for parties or as an afternoon snack at home. You can find several versions on the internet depending on the influence.

This Filipino empanada recipe I will share with you today is a recreation of my mom’s empanada. She used to make this when I was younger and would sell them for extra income. As a single mom, she had to work a little harder to make ends meet for us, and I will forever be grateful that she didn’t throw me in the dumps. I’m just kidding.

This empanada recipe requires very little cooking skills, I promise! Let’s get cooking!
