Started an asado with friends and decided to open with a few boxes from Argentum. Best decision we made. The Carnivore was the standout, everyone agreed.

Patagonia (pack of 12) - Frozen
$52.00
Patagonia is Argentum's vegan empanada with grilled mushroom, spinach, kale, carrot, garlic and onion folded with potato cheese, wrapped in our signature green dough, made in Bondi Beach and delivered frozen across Sydney. Bake from frozen at 190°C for 18 to 22 minutes.
Pack of twelve Patagonia empanadas. Fully vegan. Grilled mushroom, spinach, kale, carrot, garlic and onion folded with potato cheese. Wrapped in our signature green dough, the same recipe used in Argentinian kitchens for generations.
Made in our Bondi Beach kitchen and frozen fresh to lock in flavour. Classic Argentinian half-moon shape with a zig-zag repulgue seal. No thawing needed.
How to bake:
Bake from frozen at 190°C for 18 to 22 minutes, until golden and crisp.
The vegan empanada that converted meat eaters. Proof that plant based does not have to be a compromise.
Vegan without the disclaimer
Patagonia is the empanada we serve to committed vegans and card-carrying carnivores at the same table. Nobody spots which is which. Mushrooms are grilled first, so they carry a proper savoury weight. Spinach, kale and carrot come in for green, sweet and colour. Potato cheese binds it all together with a soft, creamy pull.
The green dough is not for decoration. It is coloured with spinach folded into the pastry, the way certain regional cocinas in Argentina distinguish vegetable empanadas from meat at a glance. It is also how you know which one is safe on a mixed catering platter.
What is inside
Grilled mushroom, spinach, kale, carrot, onion, garlic and potato cheese, wrapped in a spinach-tinted wheat pastry. Fully vegan and fully vegetarian. Contains wheat gluten.
What to drink with it
| Style | Pick | Why it works |
|---|---|---|
| Wine | Argentinian Sauvignon Blanc, or a dry Patagonian rosé | Green herb notes meet the kale and spinach directly. |
| Beer | Sydney lager or a lighter pale ale | Bright and clean, does not fight the mushrooms. |
| Non-alcoholic | Sparkling water with lemon, or yerba mate | Cuts through the earthy mushroom. |
| Sauce | Pedro's Chimichurri (jar, sold separately, vegan) | Herbs and vinegar are the natural partner for grilled vegetables. |
When to serve it
| Occasion | How to plate it |
|---|---|
| Vegan dinner party | Three per person, with a big leaf salad and chimichurri. |
| Work lunch | Two in a lunch box, warm or room temperature. |
| Mixed-dietary catering | The vegan option that everyone at the table will still want to try. |
| Picnic | Bake ahead, pack in foil, serves well at room temperature. |
How many it feeds
Twelve empanadas feed 3 to 4 people as a full meal or 4 to 5 people as finger food. For larger vegan or mixed-dietary orders, look at the Chef's Box ($85) or a full catering order.
Bake reminder
Straight from freezer to a preheated oven at 190°C for 18 to 22 minutes. The green dough will crisp and turn a slightly deeper green. No egg wash needed to keep it vegan.

Ordered for a picnic with friends, the Carnivore is my favourite. Would highly recommend.
I used to grab a pie from the bakery, but Argentum has completely replaced that for me. Lighter dough, premium fillings, baked not fried. Way more flavour.
Tried all the flavours, the chicken is my favourite, but honestly all of them are delicious.
We ordered 5 dozen for a dinner with friends. The chicken ones are so tasty and generously filled. Everyone went back for more.
Love that they don't make me feel too heavy. Perfect balance, these have become a regular in my routine.
My personal favourite is the cheese filling. The dough is amazing, we ordered for a party and everyone loved them.
My favourite is the cheese one. The whole family loved them, we will definitely be buying more.
Beautiful pastry. Amazing filling. Exactly what you want from a premium empanada.
While I eat almost everything, the Patagonia is incredible and potentially my favourite, packed with flavour and by no means a compromise.
The vegan filling is amazing and very generous. We ordered 5 dozen for a dinner night and they were a real hit.
Love that there is a great vegan option. These don't make you feel heavy, now a regular for our whole family.
We tried all the flavours and the star of the night was the Arabe one. The service was a solid 10. Truly world champions.
The flavours are really amazing, something I hadn't tasted before. They were a big hit at our gathering.
From the very first bite, you can taste the freshness and quality. Every filling is distinct and exceptional.
Had these delivered for my brand opening and they absolutely showed up. Guests kept asking where they came from. Perfect size, full of flavour.
We ordered around 400 empanadas for a work party. Elevated but easy to grab and enjoy. They disappeared fast.
We had a mix of everything for a boat party. These are the best empanadas I have ever had.
I brought them into the office for a team event. Safe to say, they were gone in minutes. Colleagues are now ordering for themselves.
My company brought these in for an after-work event and that is how I discovered Argentum. Ended up going back for seconds and thirds.
We ordered 3 dozen for Christmas Eve and they were absolutely perfect. Our friends from all over the world loved them.
The best empanadas in Sydney, no doubt! Perfect for sharing with friends, packed with flavour, and made with so much care.
Truly authentic, reminds me of my years in Argentina. Delivery is fast and the care that goes into each empanada really shows.
The pastry is flaky without being greasy, the fillings are well-seasoned. Consistently authentic with a great balance of texture and flavour.

Made in Bondi Beach
Handmade. Every one of them.
Every Argentum empanada is made by hand in our Bondi Beach kitchen using recipes Pedro's grandma perfected over fifty years. Real grass-fed beef brisket, free-range chicken, proper three-cheese blends, and a fully vegan Patagonia with signature green dough.
No industrial production lines. No shortcuts. Just traditional Argentinian technique, premium ingredients, and a team that cares what ends up on your plate.
01
Grass-fed beef.
Slow-cooked brisket, pulled by hand, never dry and never forgotten in the freezer.
02
Free-range chicken.
Pulled, not diced. Seasoned with lemon, olives, and a whisper of curry for balance.
03
Proper cheeses.
Provolone, parmesan, and mozzarella. Three cheeses that actually taste like something.
04
Proper vegan.
Patagonia isn't an afterthought. Green dough, real vegetables, converts meat eaters.
