Vacations may be over, but our appetite for discovery never ends! Our Veroni on the Road journey continues, and this time we’re heading to Argentina, the land of passion, tango, and unforgettable flavors.
One of Argentina’s most iconic dishes is the empanada—a golden, flaky pocket filled with savory goodness. Every region in the country has its own version, and they’re the kind of comfort food that brings everyone together. Whether baked or fried, empanadas are the perfect bite to share, snack on, or make the star of your table.
For our Veroni on the Road take, we’ve created a recipe that blends Italian inspiration with Argentine tradition. Think warm, buttery dough and a rich filling that celebrates the best of both worlds.
Here’s what you’ll need:
-
Flour
-
Water
-
Seed oil
-
Red onion
-
Mixed ground meat
-
Veroni Mortadella, grilled and diced
-
Green pitted olives
-
Red bell pepper
-
Paprika
-
Chili pepper
Start by preparing a simple dough with flour, water, and a drizzle of oil. While it rests, cook the chopped red onion, red pepper, and ground meat until golden. Add in the Mortadella cubes for an extra layer of flavor, plus the olives, paprika, and chili pepper for that signature Argentine kick. Fill each dough circle with a spoonful of the mixture, fold, seal, and bake until golden brown.
The result? Warm, crispy empanadas bursting with flavor—perfect for a casual dinner, game night, or picnic. They’re hearty, flavorful, and a great way to bring friends and family together, wherever you are.
So, even if summer feels far away, you can still travel with your taste buds. Pack your kitchen passport and join us as we explore the world one bite at a time.
