This website is about the project "Empirical Analysis of Architecture and Design Quality". Short: EmpAnADa. However, more people will associate 'empanada' with a tasty pastry dish which is popular in Spain, Portugal and South America. This hypothesis is supported by the statistics of this website, which shows a large number of visitors from these countries.

We do not want to disappoint the visitors of this site who are rather interested in the tasty empanada instead of software engineering. Therefore we post a recipe of the tasty empanada here. Of course, those who visit this page because of their interest in UML and software engineering are also kindly invited to try the tasty empanada!
