Calzones rotos (translated literally to "broken panties") are Chilean pastries of fried dough made with flour, milk, lard, and optionally eggs and/or orange skin. It is a typical winter food, particularly in the southern regions of the country. The shape is very similar to Klenäts, and probably has a similar origin.
The particular Spanish name is popularly believed to originate from colonial times, when a vendor of the pastries uncovered her ripped panties during a windy day, gaining the nickname of "the lady of the broken panties".
