Gutap

Gutap is a savory half-moon-shaped pastry that takes culinary influence from southern Asian neighbors and is usually served as a side dish. This meal, which is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, is also known as street food, so you can get it in marketplaces and bazaars if you're traveling.

Meat or spinach, pumpkin with chopped onions, salt, and pepper make up the stuffing. The filling is placed in rolled-flat dough and folded into a half-moon shape before being deep-fried or cooked in a skillet with a little oil and turned once until golden brown on both sides. The gutaps can be baked in the oven, but with a little thicker dough in this instance. The meal goes well with soups and salads, but it can also be eaten on its own.
