Overview

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Pasteles are a traditional dish in several Latin American countries. In Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, the Caribbean coast of Colombia, and Panama, it is similar to a tamale. In Central American cuisine, it more closely resembles a British pasty or an Italian calzone. In Central American pasteles, the filling is placed in the center of disk made of dough. The dough is then folded over and the edges sealed and fried. It is often served with curtido, a type of relish resembling sauerkraut. In Hawaii, locals say pateles without the first s. This may be related to the absence of consonant clusters in native Hawaiian words, and perhaps also to the frequent. However, the pronunciation of pasteles as pateles, does occur in other Puerto Rican dialects as well weakening or loss of /s/ at the end of syllables in Caribbean Spanish.
