What is "hallulla"

Hallulla (, approximately like ; from the Hebrew challah) is a popular bread in Chile. The hallulla is a flat round bread baked with vegetable (but sometimes also animal) shortening and is used for several traditional Chilean sandwiches. A typical white hallulla is similar in taste and texture to a scone, but is circular and larger, and more often used with savoury rather than sweet fillings.

The traditional recipe includes wheat flour, yeast, sugar, salt, vegetable shortening, milk and water.
