About Ternera empanada
Ternera Empanada is a savory pastry originating from Latin American and Spanish cuisines, celebrated for its rich, flavorful filling and flaky crust. The filling typically includes minced beef (ternera), onions, bell peppers, garlic, and a blend of traditional spices such as paprika and cumin, offering a satisfying combination of protein and aromatic depth. Wrapped in a golden, buttery dough and baked or fried to perfection, this handheld delight is both convenient and indulgent. From a nutritional perspective, the ternera provides essential proteins and iron, supporting muscle health and energy levels. Vegetables in the filling add vitamins and fiber, enhancing the dish’s nutritional profile. However, the pastry shell is often high in saturated fat and calories, so moderation is key. For a healthier option, consider baking instead of frying or opting for a whole-grain crust. Ternera Empanadas offer a taste of cultural tradition balanced with hearty nutrition.
