Colombian Empanadas: Golden Crispy Corn & Savory Beef Filling
Colombian empanadas stand out uniquely across Latin America. While neighboring countries bake wheat pastries, authentic Colombian empanadas are crafted from finely milled yellow corn dough and deep-fried to golden perfection. This creates an irresistible, crunchy outer shell with a steaming, savory interior that has delighted street diners for centuries.
At Donde La Tía, our empanadas are folded by hand daily. Filled with succulent slow-braised shredded beef and creamy yellow potatoes simmered in Creole herbs, they are served piping hot alongside our zesty house ají sauce made with fresh cilantro, scallions, and fresh lime juice.

The 4 Pillars of Colombian Home Cooking
Authentic homemade Colombian cooking cannot be rushed: it is rooted in wholesome raw ingredients, hours of gentle simmering, and loving family recipes passed down across generations.
Authentic Criollo Hogao
Vine-ripened tomatoes, fresh scallions, crushed garlic, and ground cumin reduced over gentle heat. It is the signature sofrito that breathes flavor into beans, stews, and meats.
Whole Corn Milled Daily
No industrial premixes. We cook whole corn kernels, mill them in-house, and hand-shape every arepa and empanada for a crisp golden exterior and fluffy warm interior.
Slow Heat & Pure Patience
Our braised meats (Sobrebarriga flank steak, beef tongue, and Sancocho) simmer for hours in rich natural broths until fork-tender and succulent.
Noble Ingredients & Tropical Freshness
Sweet caramelized ripe plantains, cassava root (yuca), creamy avocados, and 100% natural pulps of passion fruit, lulo, soursop, and mango from the Andes.
