An empanada is a type of turnover, typically made from a pastry shell that is either baked or fried. The name originates from the Spanish word "empanar," which translates to "breaded" or "wrapped in bread." These dishes are prepared by folding dough over a filling, which can include ingredients like meat, cheese, tomato, or corn, before being cooked. Empanadas are commonly found in Spain, Portugal, various Southern European, North African, West African, South Asian, and Latin American countries, as well as the Philippines.
