This type of fried pastry is eaten in many areas of the Americas that have Spanish heritage. What is it called?
Answer Sopaipilla
Traditionally, a sopaipilla is prepared using leavened wheat dough and butter. After allowing the dough to rise, it's flattened into a sheet and then cut into round, or square forms. These pieces are then deep-fried in oil. It's often used as a dessert, but can also be served as a main course when stuffed with vegetables or meat.
