[@yoalandaramos-santos7318]

Thank you for teaching us to cook our native food's especially those of us who have been separated from our own people, culture for what ever reason. I have learned so much from you. God bless you!!!

[@tracyturner4077]

[@robertoreyes6809]

I love the way you teach. Simple and to the point.

[@TheCalichick619]

I love all your recipes! I've made so many great dishes because of your instructions thank u !!! Big fan !

[@April_K75]

Never tried making empanadas this way, looks delicious 😍

[@cindysantiago5591]

Hola Ida, so glad I found your channel. You have a natural gift for cooking and teaching. Thank you for doing what you do. You mentioned that if we had any suggestions for dishes to let you know, well after watching this video, "jibaritos envueltos" came to my mind! Although I've watched my mother make them countless times, they never come out exactly like hers when I try to make them myself. Please do a video for "jibaritos envueltos"! With your easy to follow instructions I'm sure I'll be able to successfully make them myself. Thanks!

[@vickyferreira3259]

Great video! I'm Portuguese and I dated a Puerto Rican man and he introduced me to all the WONDERFUL foods of Puerto Rico and now I'm hooked 😊 Thank you for your videos, I'll be definitely checking out more of them. 🇵🇹 ❤ 🇵🇷

[@luzocasio2858]

@DENICE LOVES Amazing so sweet and savory, so easy to make.. I'm making it again one day this week.

[@luzocasio2858]

@DENICE LOVES I baked them for about 20-25. So they can get a little toasty..

[@doit4justice564]

Awww I love when she said "this is 4 you"🤗

[@lynettevalentin9411]

I'm trying it this father's day.

[@sushilover40]

I am going to make these! I will use parched flour. Thank you for the video!

[@jtorres2557]

Hola Ida. Great recipe, demonstration and video. 👍 I am going to try this recipe this weekend for a friends party. My friend is Caucasian but they love Puerto Rican food...ESPECIALLY mine (lol). I am going to try bake these instead of frying them... but first I have 2 questions: 1. As far as taste of true Puerto Rican flavor...el "Saborrrrrr Puertorriqueño" (thats my Puerto Rican style "r" rolling tongue lol)...which tastes better, fried or baked? And is there a difference in taste either way cooked? 2. When baking what do you suggest I preheat oven to and for how long to bake?

[@arelys1228]

Oh my!!!!!! Looks delish

[@nicolajohnson9214]

Thanks you I really appreciate you showing me your recipe

[@ILloveHunnybun]

Dang they look soooo good😋 I will be making them, thank you.

[@chbybaby]

I just love your personality thank you for sharing all your wonderful recipes. I like to buy your cook book where do I go to order it?

[@sweetsandbeyond]

Thank you! You can go to www.sweetsandbeyond.net to buy it.

[@marisolvazquez473]

All your recipes look mouth watering!!! I cant wait to try this recipe. I would love for you to upload a video on how to make the banana boats filled with meat.

[@sweetsandbeyond]

I have one already

[@CarlosGonzalez-vu1ew]

Never seen that before , but looks like a super tasty twist on one of my favorite snacks: empanadillas. Nicely done. You videos are excellent and I see you no longer wear rings when cooking 😜 Keep up the videos-buen provecho!!!

[@sweetsandbeyond]

Carlos Gonzalez Thanks. The only reason I don't wear them because they are too big.

[@marisolterrazas5867]

These are amazing thanks for the video, I do have a quick question though, I tried making them and my mixture was too sticky, was it because it needed more flour? TIA

[@sweetsandbeyond]

Marisol Terrazas Yes add more flour. Some plantains have more liquid than others.

[@marisolterrazas5867]

Thank you so much, I'm definitely trying again!

[@jessicacolon5265]

MMMMM, this looks so good. I wonder if you can air fry them.

[@JoJo-fm4tk]

New subscriber here! I love your channel! You are a fantastic teacher and the food is yummy!

[@AllThingsTashy]

[@margiecieslinski1509]

[@karenburson8796]

Ida - I have eaten these except they were like a relleno de papa .... very delish!!

[@butterfliess1469]

If you choose to bake what time & temp do you recommend? Looks delicious

[@sweetsandbeyond]

I would bake them at 400F until brown. Maybe 5 minutes on each side.

[@butterfliess1469]

+Sweets and Beyond thanks for the reply. Going to def try the recipe.

[@TuckerSP2011]

It looked so yummy!

[@natashahance1978]

Those always been my favorite..

[@frankygarcia625]

Yess I’m making this Sunday,,👍❤️✌️💯gracias,,

[@missbritt288]

There is something similar to this in alot of West African cuisines .... In Ghana Its called Titale ...its more like a fritter tho - In general the love of pairing sweet bananas with savory meats or sauces is a very African thing

[@dorothybranch3731]

Love it!

[@maritzamartin3074]

Omg heaven on earth!!

[@jellywelly33]

Do you think we can make the dough or the empanadas ahead of time? Maybe the night before for easy frying the next day?

[@twistedtreezz]

They look great and they remind me of a pastelone

[@favor9163]
