About Empanadas de verde con queso
Empanadas de Verde con Queso are a delicious traditional dish from Ecuadorian cuisine, showcasing the country’s love for green plantains. These hand-crafted turnovers feature a dough made from blended green plantains, which gives them their distinct flavor and soft texture. The filling is typically fresh, creamy cheese, making each bite a perfect balance of savory and satisfying. Green plantains are rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, supporting digestive health and providing energy, but the cooking method—often pan-frying—can increase their fat content, depending on the oil used. For a lighter option, baking or air-frying can reduce added fats. This dish is a staple of Ecuadorian snacks and street food, combining simple, wholesome ingredients with indulgent flavor, perfect for enjoying in moderation.
