Connie- Just vegetable oil, but it has to be at the right temperature. Drain them on paper towel.

C- You can try baking them. In Colombia we always fry them.

Hi Erika, great recipe. I do have a question though. Can you bake the empanadas instead of deep fried them? if yes, then at what temperature oand and for how long? Thanks!

Wow, I am so glad I just found your website. I have searched high and low to find the real deal Colombian empanadas like the ones I have had with my mother’s family in Colombia. These look almost identical to the favorites I come back to when I am in Medellin. I watched them being in made in Medellin at my mother’s house and they did not use bell pepper, so might omit that. Thank you so much!
