Yes, thank you so very much for representing Ecuador this way. I am Ecuatoriana but have lived here for 54 years and did not learn to cook before I came. I am now subscribed. Have a blessed day
I'm half Ecuadorian and mi abuelita makes the sugar/cheese empanada as a quesadilla instead, but same thing. And she takes her plantain, slices it down the middle and stuffs it with cheese then puts it in the toaster oven. Cheese and plantain. Yes please. Thank you for this video!
I have Ecuadorian family, I'm Puerto Rican but we share many of the same foods, with slight variation. Like we have a similar potato fritter called relleno de papa. We fill it with meat, roll it into a ball and fry it. We also commonly eat fried sweet plantains, we call it amarillos or maduros. And we have empanadillas(some people call them pastelillos, they would be wrong lol) which are like the empanadas but we typically fill them with seasoned meat, seafood, cheese or "pizza" style. We use a lot of the same ingredients like achiote and cilantro.
😂 I feel exhausted on your behalf for knocking out so many recipes in one day. They all look amaaaaaazing and I def am going to try the locro de papa. Also the entire aesthetic of this video is utter perfection.
Thank your for the recepis you posted up. My husband is Ecuador and he asking all the time to make him some Ecuador food. Wish me luck and let see how it turn out.
Love Ecuadorian food, I was in Miami and went to eat at a Nice ecuadorian Restaurant, is called Mi lindo Ecuador, BUT I was there 3 Times and the Food was so good, my family had a great Time there, Greetings from Boston Ma.👌🙏👏🌎
You guys are great! Jasmine: Keep your eyes on the audience. I feel as if you look at Chris for affirmation. You are awesome when looking at the camera. Chris does a great job, as he keeps his eyes looking straight to camera. Keep up the great work!
I'm Ecuadorian myself and even though I know how to make all those recipes I really enjoyed watching you make them!!... I really wanna go make come y bebe right now lol... 🇪🇨
I love this! I married into an Ecuadorian family and I haven't yet attempted to make any vegan Ecuadorian recipes, so I'm excited for this and to share it with family!
You guys are great!! I love your videos. I’m Filipina and my boyfriend is Ecuadorian! He’s prepared me many of the dishes you mentioned. We both enjoy creating and cooking different recipes together- So delish!
I *adore* this series! Honestly, I would 100% watch this on TV - through these videos you allow me not only to please my eyes (since your content is so beautifully crafted) or find recipes to try but also explore other cultures and get to know new content creators to follow and learn from! . Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your time and effort guys! Stay safe and have a great rest of the week!
As a puertorican, who loves empanadas but also loves cheese and guava. I would make these from cheese and guava paste. 👀 Need to make them now. A savory and sweet version.
Very common to do it with fresh cheese on top but I would say Verde is more commonly used as patacones. It was weird at first, later it was perfect together
Finally found properly prepared Ecuadorian food on TH-cam! Very happy Ecuadorian rn! Even though I am not vegan I can appreciate the spin of my favorite Ecuadorian classics! Much love 🥰🇪🇨
Oh, I love this because even me being Mexican IN Mexico do not fully know other Latin American foods! And almost everything can be veganized today so for that I'm so grateful. ❤
I'm ecuadorian and eeeeeverything is so on point. I loved it. I also like eating maduros with vegan cheese or salprieta (it's mainly crushed peanuts but sometimes they put pork fat in it so we have to ask first). Our cuisine is very simple to veganize so I loved this video.
I’m so excited for the Puerto Rican episode! My dad is Puertorican and my family used to tell me I can’t be Puertorican AND vegan. I love proving them wrong. 😁 Can’t wait to see what you guys make! (Aaroz Con Gandules gotta be in there!) 😉
This video makes me so happy because I am also half Ecuadorian haha. My mom is German and I grew up in Germany. I've always felt like that something was missing because all of my family lives in Ecuador or other countries. Food was a way for me to connect to my Ecuadorian heritage. At that time I also started to learn Spanish. I've met my family and I can still remember the things my father used to cook for me, but unfortunately he died when I was fourteen and he was the only thing that really connected me to my Ecuadorian roots. I really love Encebollado, it's not vegan, but really good. 😁 Thanks for the video, I really enjoyed it :).
I find really lovely that you're grateful for your family and their effort to give you a better life, I'm Venezuelan living in Argentina and migration is anything but easy. También qué lindo que hables español :) I didn't realize you had latin inheritance
This series is amazing and I’m so happy that I’ve discovered it! I’m doing a similar thing on my own! Mine is also countries/cultures around the world, but I just spread all the recipes over the course of a few days or a week.
Love love love this series! I grew up in Hawaii so there's a lot of Hawaiian and Filipino foods that you you just can't get in the states (not to mention vegan!). We pretty much make Asian, Mexican, and Italian foods, but I know there's a whole world of delicious cuisine we've never tried. I'm stoked to try these recipes (and more to come!)!
Yum and yum! I appreciate the two of you and your always enjoyable channel as well as your honest yet mindful review/opinion of the products you try! Your Grandma sounds like a Beautiful Soul! And no worries…I think ya done her proud 🤗✨ And I think I am going to have to adopt your accidental new phrase from now on! I LOVE “Ceeking”(Cooking+Eating)! Hee!
Our food is So delicious, even Leylah Fernandez'Dad used to cook for his Family some of the Those dishes From the Coast, since his Dad is From Guayaquil, thanks so much and greetings from Boston.
I love locro de papa! I had it when I was in Ecuador in 2004 (I was vegetarian at the time) and always wanted to recreate it. Love that you made a vegan version!! At the restaurant it came with partially popped huge popcorn cornels (A specific variety to the Andes I am sure) - not sure how to get this but it was super good this way.
That soup looks amazing! Also, IMO Ripple milk is the best for creamy recipes. I use it for cream of mushroom soup and mushroom stroganoff. I’ve also used it with tahini to make a cheater Alfredo-like sauce.
Im Ecuadorian and the reason why she put a lot of salt in the onions and then rinsed them, it’s because this helps to take out the « strong taste » that red onions have! You can do so with white onions too! ( typed it and the she said it ) haha Also it’s a salad not a sauce
I’m Ecuadorian and just i had the empanadas, no sugar!! Lol.. Ecuador is a small country but wow is incredible i never have the opportunity to try traditional food, i grow up in a family with a healthy lifestyle, because on my grandma. Any way !! I love learning something new even though i am from there.
I love empanadas but never had them with cheese like this, will be trying this soon! Also, I love this series as well specially with Latin American cuisines that often don’t get highlighted as much :)
Maduro with cheese are like Mac and cheese! They are meant to be together hahaha in the coast we also add salprieta (ground and toasted peanuts) One word. Delicious
Oh yes, I can relate to 'zeppole' (the kind of Italian donut). My mom decorated them with vanilla custard and wild cherry jam on top. I used to bring some to my dad who was working in the garden. For a big family, a lot of zeppole had to be prepared. I remembered them resting on the table, covered with a cloth and rising. :D Jasmin really cooked a lot and well. Kudos to her!
wow. want to talk about synchronicity? i'm planning a trip for a month and even though i know the country is vegan friendly, i'd still rather cook my meals myself. the place i'll be staying at has a kitchenette and i've been watching your video making the walnut and lentil 'meat' substitute. i know i should be able to find those ingredients in South America also. I've been a vegetarian since 1988 and cheese was the only thing i never gave up until a couple of months ago. i'm still not happy with the meltability (or lack thereof), texture or taste of vegan cheeses but my sinuses thank me for the commitment. i'll never be a 'true' vegan because i'm ok with leather so just sue me there. lol. getting back to the point, i'm stressing about the additional testing and paperwork to travel abroad and then i see this video on Ecuadorian food. i'm so happy now because i'll be able to make more than just vegan hamburgers, lumpias and tacos in Manta, Ecuador. Thanks, Jasmine and Chris
Next cuisine suggestion: African! Although personally I have *zero* experience with it, it seems incredibly interesting and flavourful. I also recently stumbled upon two, potentially good resources for you: - thecanadianafrican ( a YT content creator making vegan Ghanaian food) - Afro-Vegan: Farm-Fresh African, Caribbean, and Southern Flavors Remixed (A Cookbook)
Would love to see it but maybe a specific country or region. Otherwise that’s a whole set of series in itself! That continent is huge - so many different cultures and variations within each country even, some wiiiildly different from others - I mean as an example you can physically fit like 5 Ecuadors in the size of Algeria or Sudan alone 😱 [edit: ok no one asked and it’s so irrelevant but I’m a nerd and had to find out: You can fit 7 Ecuadors in Algeria! ...and still have a bit of room!]
I liked to watch your different series show. Which is so good and some like I can’t cook for so long. So I can so simple cooking like 30 minutes from Rachel Ray’s old Food Network TV Show. I love it when I am so fascinating with my favorite sweet plantain fries. I want to try do something like else for best way to cook meat free or veggies with mash potatoes fries. I remember one of my ex boyfriend Puerto Rican taught me some Spanish rice and Meat (former meat) with mash potatoes fries almost like your. So keep going to next your new series of show. Good job and proud of you are very hard work cooking. 😉.
Those recipes look so good. Chris does your mom make the St Joseph zeppoles that are filled with either ricotta or custard cream.They only come out March 19th for his feast day. I would love to see those veganized. Your mom Italian recipes are so good. Thank you for your channel : )
Interesante vídeo, siempre he pensado que las recetas de las culturas nativas del 🇪🇨 son bastante veganas o al menos vegetarianas pues en Ecuador hay muchas frutas y tubérculos y los animales de granja a penas llegaron desde Europa realmente nunca se consumió esa carne en el pasado, buen video gracias por las ideas 🤗😋👍

God bless you Chris, being with an Ecuadorian woman is not easy. Trust me I'm with one.
Ecuadorian Chilean here. My grandma cooks food from her country all the time. I basically grew up with it. Food from Ecuador is just so delicious.
We immigrated to Ecuador from US excited to see your vegan cooking
I'm ecuatorian and my boyfriend is from the UK and he LOVES my vegan Ecuadorian meals ❤

I'm also half Ecuadorian on my dad's side and I've recently become vegetarian/more plant-based so I'm super happy to have found this video
Love Ecuadorian food, I was in Miami and went to eat at a Nice ecuadorian Restaurant, is called Mi lindo Ecuador, BUT I was there 3 Times and the Food was so good, my family had a great Time there, Greetings from Boston Ma.👌🙏👏🌎
My husband is Ecuadorian and I learned to make some dishes so he can enjoy 😊
Amazing!! I’m Ecuadorian 🇪🇨 love seeing some of my favorite foods.
I give you an A+ for the food in this video. Excellente. Very accurate to how food we eat looks.
I fill my empanadas with Moro rice , lentils cooked with onion tomato peppers and rice I add garlic and ají
You guys are great!
Jasmine:
Keep your eyes on the audience. I feel as if you look at Chris for affirmation. You are awesome when looking at the camera. Chris does a great job, as he keeps his eyes looking straight to camera.
Keep up the great work!
I love it, im ecuadorian 🇪🇨
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!🌺😋
I made this recipe and my family loved it thank you. 😊😌
I'm Ecuadorian myself and even though I know how to make all those recipes I really enjoyed watching you make them!!... I really wanna go make come y bebe right now lol... 🇪🇨

that peanut sauce looked SO good
This was wonderful, thank you!
As a puertorican, who loves empanadas but also loves cheese and guava. I would make these from cheese and guava paste. 👀 Need to make them now. A savory and sweet version.
Loved seeing this! I'm Ecuadorian and I always feel like Ecuadorian food is underrepresented in Latin food
. 🥰
Very common to do it with fresh cheese on top but I would say Verde is more commonly used as patacones. It was weird at first, later it was perfect together
Finally found properly prepared Ecuadorian food on TH-cam! Very happy Ecuadorian rn! Even though I am not vegan I can appreciate the spin of my favorite Ecuadorian classics! Much love 🥰🇪🇨
The side eye when Chris took the bigger empanada!! 😂🤣 Lool you guys are so cute!
This is great! My grandmother is Equadorian too but I'm not very familiar with the cuisine other than ceviche and some desserts.
Oh, I love this because even me being Mexican IN Mexico do not fully know other Latin American foods! And almost everything can be veganized today so for that I'm so grateful. ❤
So excited for vegan Puerto Rican food !!
I'm ecuadorian and eeeeeverything is so on point. I loved it. I also like eating maduros with vegan cheese or salprieta (it's mainly crushed peanuts but sometimes they put pork fat in it so we have to ask first). Our cuisine is very simple to veganize so I loved this video.
Yes to the cheese and salprieta!!
nah,,melanie. Salprieta is crush peanut and salt,,that's all
Really enjoying this series.
I’m so excited for the Puerto Rican episode! My dad is Puertorican and my family used to tell me I can’t be Puertorican AND vegan. I love proving them wrong. 😁 Can’t wait to see what you guys make! (Aaroz Con Gandules gotta be in there!) 😉

Thanks for the video, I really enjoyed it :).
Looks delicious!
Your dessert was my favorite new idea to try. 😃 Thanks!
I like fried plantains so yummy with salt. I like empanadas with cinnamon apple or meat and veggies.
So excited to try the empanada recipe!! Thank you for sharing🤗
I find really lovely that you're grateful for your family and their effort to give you a better life, I'm Venezuelan living in Argentina and migration is anything but easy. También qué lindo que hables español :) I didn't realize you had latin inheritance
Spanish food can be very unique: chocolate con churros, paella, tortilla de patata, cocido, torrijas, rosquillas...
No entiendo porque me pongo a ver videos de comida cuando tengo hambre, buen video, saludos desde Ecuador
It was great as always thank you.
Yummy now that's my kind of food!
Aww, I love how you made your grandmother happy! Everything looks delicious. And you made it all look easy to make. Thank you for the great video.
This series is amazing and I’m so happy that I’ve discovered it! I’m doing a similar thing on my own! Mine is also countries/cultures around the world, but I just spread all the recipes over the course of a few days or a week.
Definitely my favorite series you guys do! Really appreciate this concept & that you are representing others cultures! Amazing.
my mom grew up in ecuador and i totally need to make her some of these recipes!!
Love love love this series! I grew up in Hawaii so there's a lot of Hawaiian and Filipino foods that you you just can't get in the states (not to mention vegan!). We pretty much make Asian, Mexican, and Italian foods, but I know there's a whole world of delicious cuisine we've never tried. I'm stoked to try these recipes (and more to come!)!
PLEASE do Slavic food. I’m Slovak! U gotta do pirogies and cabbage rolls!!
I neeeeeed those plantains!!! 🤩✨
This video reminds me a lot of Costa Rica's food, we also eat a lot of fried Plátanos maduros and empanadas, but ours are made with corn meal
My mother is from Sicily and I grew up eating fried pizza dough, covered in sugar. I still make it.
My family is from Sicily too!!
Yum and yum! I appreciate the two of you and your always enjoyable channel as well as your honest yet mindful review/opinion of the products you try! Your Grandma sounds like a Beautiful Soul! And no worries…I think ya done her proud 🤗✨
And I think I am going to have to adopt your accidental new phrase from now on! I LOVE “Ceeking”(Cooking+Eating)! Hee!
Mmmm these look so very good!! You should do Vietnam with the Viet Vegan
Our food is So delicious, even Leylah Fernandez'Dad used to cook for his Family some of the Those dishes From the Coast, since his Dad is From Guayaquil, thanks so much and greetings from Boston.
I love fried plantains, my mom makes them in butter and then sprinkles sugar on top and they’re so good!
That banana thing is called vudi in my country.
Omg Vegan Ecuadorian food! I feel so heard ❤️❤️❤️🥰
I love locro de papa! I had it when I was in Ecuador in 2004 (I was vegetarian at the time) and always wanted to recreate it. Love that you made a vegan version!! At the restaurant it came with partially popped huge popcorn cornels (A specific variety to the Andes I am sure) - not sure how to get this but it was super good this way.
Love this! I lived in Ibarra for some time and you’ve covered some of my favs!
My fav vegan meal in Ecuador was vegan mora berry empanadas. Or churrasco. I gotta make a vegan version of churrasco.
That soup looks amazing! Also, IMO Ripple milk is the best for creamy recipes. I use it for cream of mushroom soup and mushroom stroganoff. I’ve also used it with tahini to make a cheater Alfredo-like sauce.
There’s a pupusa place nearby that tops their fried plantains with some kind of magical mayo and it’s so good
Im Ecuadorian and the reason why she put a lot of salt in the onions and then rinsed them, it’s because this helps to take out the « strong taste » that red onions have! You can do so with white onions too! ( typed it and the she said it ) haha
Also it’s a salad not a sauce
Great vegan food 🥝 video 👍

Síiiiii!! Please do more South American food. Gracias 😁.
Maduro with cheese are like Mac and cheese! They are meant to be together hahaha in the coast we also add salprieta (ground and toasted peanuts) One word. Delicious
Yuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmm!

- thecanadianafrican ( a YT content creator making vegan Ghanaian food)

I also love Afro-Vegan, Bryant Terry is an incredible chef - check out his Vegetable Kingdom cookbook if you haven't already!
Yes I second this!

@@lindsaytoussaint Sure! I just dropped an overall idea and two suggestion I know of here. But definitely, it would require more than one video :D
What exactly is “African” food? It’s an extremely large continent.
great video ! please make a video of eating Portuguese food
You guys should do a video on Malaysian food!
Ooh all the food you made looks sooo good - wow!!
Happy Birthday Jasmine!! 💙 What date is your special day?

Quebec, Canada recipes that you guys should make. It's not the same recipes than the rest of Canada.
Y’all should do a Brazilian food day! 🇧🇷🇧🇷
💚🌱⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing food and adorable couple 😍🙌🏼
Empanadas look so fun to make
Those recipes look so good. Chris does your mom make the St Joseph zeppoles that are filled with either ricotta or custard cream.They only come out March 19th for his feast day. I would love to see those veganized. Your mom Italian recipes are so good. Thank you for your channel : )
These dishes are so familiar to me & I'm Cuban.😋💚💪🏽✌🏽🍃

Saludos desde Ecuador! Buenos y deliciosos platos 🇪🇨👊
Check out Arcadian cuisine. It's food from Northern Maine/New Brunswick, Canada, ancestors.

I think a love for potatoes is common across all cuisines...
Have you tried Persian? I can help you with recipes if you wanna try it. So good and so healthy.
