Hi there! Thanks for checking out my video. I’m a beginner at cooking, and I wanted to document my progress, share my recipes and hopefully inspire other beginners to hop into the kitchen!
These empanadas were inspired by the absolutely delicious ones my grandma always makes! My recipe has a few changes, based on the ingredients I can usually find and the best way I’ve been able to mimic the flavor of hers. I really love how versatile and simple this recipe can be once you’re used to making it. It can be a little bit time consuming, but it’s so worth it to see the happy smiles on the faces of whoever tastes them!
If you try out any of these recipes, let me know down below! I’d love to read lots of comments on these videos.
