Almost every time I've asked her what she's eaten - the reply is empanadas. Naturally I had to ask the specifics and finally she and her friends Nena and Mauricio actually made them from scratch. I don't have the recipe but here are the photos she sent....

And, wouldn't you know it......no finished product to look at! Or a recipe to go with the photos. So I took the liberty of including this link to some authentic South American empanada recipes.
Remember, tomorrow is the deadline for this month's Weekend Cookbook Challenge - Foreign Food All the details are there and then email a link to your entries to ruth AT 4everykitchen DOT com. If you don't have your own blog I'll be happy to post your recipe and any photo on mine. I'll probably post the round up on Tuesday.

This is an interesting recipe, which reminds me of Polish Pierogi (something my wife added to my site).
I've always wondered about Chilean food, since it's such a country of contrasts.

Your empanadas look great! I recently made some as well:
