Chez Anne’s Cheese Empanadas

In Rio and throughout Brazil, we love savoury snacks, and empadinhas de queijo (cheese empanadas) are among my personal favourites. You will find them in almost every corner of the city, and here I’m sharing an easy version to make at home, inspired by Chez Anne, a famous bakery in Rio. Many empanadas are double-crusted, but this one is single-crusted, making it even easier to prepare, and they reheat quite well, making them a great take-away snack.
