There are many ethnic backgrounds that make the same foods. They just call it something different or they may have 1 or 2 different ingredients. NY has food from all the different countries. And I just love it!
I'm not PR but my mother made these often and we loved them as kids. She got the recipe from a friend (who was PR) and we always called them empanadillas.
Looks delicious. Growjng up in a family full of Puertoriquenos and none never made pastelillos but it does bring me back to getting like three at the local bodega! Sounds dangerous but the bodegeros always kept their places mas limpio. Mmmmmmm Ill be making some soon! Thank you for this!
In Hawaii we call it panadillas nice video I got to try my grandma would make and I could eat all thanks for the video I will try soon aloha from hawaii.

To say that empanadillas and pastelillos are the same thing, respectufully, they aren't. The empanadilla doug, the one you can make the braided edge, is thicker than the ones used to make pastelillos. Just compare both at your next grocery stop; that's why the manufacturer always will tell if the disks are to make pastellios or empanadas o empanadillas.
Mom used to make these Empanadas 2 or 3 times a month in Miami 305. I miss those days. Thanks to this channel, i can now try to remake some of her cooking. Gracia doña Mari 💪🏾❤️
I love cooking this for my family also for gathering my kids love it. I wanna leave a Legacy of everything. My mom taught me specially Puerto Rican appetizers and great dishes amazing.❤🌻🦋🧡
Well, I'm going to break my diet, because I miss my mom's empanadas and her cooking. Born in Brooklyn, New York, from my Puerto Rican, parents raised Southern California. I got to make some together with arroz con gandules. RIP! I miss my parents they're in heaven, the best Puerto Rican parents that I can ever have. 🇵🇷
Hey Mari! You know I’m here watching. Empanadas is the name I know. My daughter is part Colombian and we embrace the culture through food. They look great!!
Growing up in Chicago I call them Pastelillos but when I moved to Houston I have to say empanadas cause everyone is like huh? What’s a pastelillo lol thanks for the video😁👍🏼love pastelillos aka empanadas
Ny Rican tooo, Pastelillos...My mom told me said I would say "Quero Patistitos" when I was a little girl😅.. I love both meat, crab meat and Pasta de guayava....Yum, I think I go out and get the Ready made flour disquitos😂...and make a bunch of them, yummy yummies, oh soooo good....❤
My late coworker would always make me a special container at Christmas! OMG! The would be soooo delicious. We called them pastelilos. I won't share with my other coworkers!!! I will try to make them using your recipe in memory of my dear Lydia. Bless you.
These looks amazing good!! ❤ I’m Puerto Rican from Bronx Ny! I make these all the time! I never done it with olives tho…I will try it. Thanks for sharing
Hello Mari. Here in NYC we call them Pastelillos. Yours looks so delicious just how I like them. I'm not PR but my daughter makes them just like the local bodega does with the picadillo being a bit drier. One of my favorite snacks next to the stuffed potato balls (Rellenos de Papas). Thanks for sharing😋🥰
Looks so good😳. I’m so glad you didn’t show us the preparation. I hate when some cooks on TH-cam feel the need to show how they cut up onions and everything 🤔.
I'm so glad i found your channel. New subscriber and I'm ashamed to say I'm such an americanized Puerto Rican that i havent made these delicious dishes for my kids. But definitely changing that going forward because i loved my mas and my grandmas dishes. Just wondering, have you ever made gandinga? May have mispelled that but its something my ma used to make as well. Also Morcilla? Again with the spelling 😅 Anyway can't wait to try these pastelillos (Chicago def calls them Pastelillos in Humboldt Park 😉). Thanks so much for all your recipes and great instruction! God Bless!
Hi there! 🤗 So, I’ve never been big on the more country meals that involve the organs, but that’s just me! However, morcillas I don’t mind but have yet to make them! Also, don’t be ashamed. We have no control over where we were born or how we grew up! The best part is that it’s never too late to tap into your roots! 🙏🏽❤️
@mariscookingpr Absolutely! I only hope to be able to honor my ma and grandma with my efforts. Thanks so much for your help and I look forward to learning more from you! 😁
I have 2 different videos how I make it and what’s in it! th-cam.com/video/khZn0OydLGE/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared th-cam.com/video/unYzo9T0ggQ/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
I was looking for a recipe for panadillas like I have but I haven't found one yet. Mine is cooked pork, garlic, tomato paste and green olives, then you save some of the grease/sauce off the pork filling to make the dough so it has a orange tint, then they are deep fried. My aunt lived in Cleveland and her neighbors were from Puerto Rico. My family loves them, but they are an undertaking for one person. As I listen I think your pronunciation it sounds like the EM was not pronounced throughout my family.
Hi! I will actually be making a tutorial on homemade empanadilla dough the way you described. It’s super easy. The frozen discs, Goya brand and others, are simply convenient, but I prefer them fresh as well. Make sure you select notifications so that you can follow along when the video comes out!
In Hawai’i I grew up buying these from a Puerto Rican woman who called them empanadillas. It’s interesting seeing how people call them by different names, I wonder if it’s a regional thing, like some parts of Puerto Rico say pastelillos and others say empanadillas. I’ve also gone to Puerto Rican restaurants and shops asking for empanadillas, and they said they didn’t know what that was, so I’m guessing pastelillos is a more common name for them… good to know. I noticed some people here in the comments saying they’re called empanadas… isn’t that the Mexican, central & South American version? Or do Puerto Ricans call them empanadas too?
@@The.Hawaiian.Kingdom Hi! So, we call them either pastelillos or empanadillas; never empanadas! Typically, pastelillos are the ones that are sealed with a fork, whereas, empanadillas are sealed with the braided method and tend to be a bit bigger. Hope this helps!
I'm a real puerto rican born and rased in the island empanadillas and pastelillos part two completely different things.The only thing they have in common is their general shape
Empanadillas empanadas son de carne.......pastelillos son de frutas como guayaba Cheryl etc, ect..... se ven deliciosas....tambien se pueden hacer de pizza

When I was small there was a Puerto Rican couple that owned a liquor store, the wife used to also sell patele (pastele) and empanadillas.
Awesome video !!! I’m learning to cook since COVID and I’m going to rock this recipe!
Sounds great! 🫶🏼
Growing up in Ponce PR we called them empanadillas 🤤🤤🤤

American cheese is probably my favorite for these. Something about the combination of ground beef with melty American just can't be matched.
@@mortmortmort8908 Omg I agree and was actually thinking about this yesterday lol! I love some good deli American cheese 🥹
These look good. I will have to try this kind with the cheese and potato.
These look amazing- can’t wait to try this recipe out!
Yay!☺️
Looks great I have a food truck and need some of your cooking style pastellos. I’m in San Sebastián 457 near plana stop by. Thank You

Looks so good😳. I’m so glad you didn’t show us the preparation. I hate when some cooks on TH-cam feel the need to show how they cut up onions and everything 🤔.
Thank you! Also, good to know. I think I showed the chopping in the very beginning of my YT journey and decided to stop because I find it pointless. 🥲
If you look at my first video - sofrito, it’s nothing but chopping LOL
Wow, great recipe!! Definitely going to try soon. I love how you do the pizza version for your kids, kind of like a hot pocket!! 😆❤
Yes! To be honest, I enjoy the pizza ones too! 😆
Amazing !! We call them pastelillos
I'm from Fajardo, I was brought up calling these "Pastelillos". I want to see you make these with Chillo. 😁😁👍👍

see if the kids might like a sweet one. Use the Goobers peanut butter and jelly. Yum
Oooo Interesting! For a sweet alternative, guava (guayaba) and white cheese is really good! Maybe I’ll try both with them. 😂
Can you send me a couple dozen of those? 😂 Looks delicious 😋
empanadillas 100%
