Description
These chickpea empanadas are a delicious bite and perfect for any occasion. The dough, made at home, is crispy and the filling, creamy and full of flavor, thanks to the chickpeas, red pepper, garlic and spices. I often prepare them for parties or as a quick and healthy snack. Turmeric gives it a special touch and a beautiful golden color. They are ideal for vegetarians and children love them. They can be served cold or hot, they are always a success! Preparation is simple and with the Thermomix® it is even easier.
