🇪🇸 Spain recipe
Empanada Gallega
A large, golden pie from Galicia with a tender olive oil pastry encasing a savoury filling of tuna, peppers, onions, and tomato. Unlike South American empanadas, the Galician version is a single, large flat pie baked on a sheet pan and cut into generous squares. Every bakery and home in Galicia has its own version, and it is the quintessential festival food.
