Q:

is "paschalilla" a right translation of this pie (Pascualina)?

I was looking for the word of the pie Pascualina in English , and google translator gave me "paschalilla". I dont think that's the right translation because I made a google search for images for that and I come with no photo of a Pascualina. Then I found another translation which says "spinach and egg pie". 
Not sure if you can make a Pascualina with that but the most common ingredient in many places is chard. Does Pascualina have an English name or should I simply call it "chard pie" or something like that? Or perhaps I should use the original name Pascualina? Other usual ingredients are onion, garlic, cheese, pepper and ham

A:

Pies like that are not commonly eaten in Britain (and probably not in other English speaking countries). A quick check of the dictionary confirms that the word "paschalilla" is not used in English. So you have one of the common translator's dilemmas: a concept that does not exist in the target language.
Here you should consider your audience. Are they people who are interested in Latin American cuisine? If so then use "pascualina" but explain its meaning the first time it is used. For example from recipe book:

The Pascualina pie or chard pie is simple to make, delicious and very healthy. This Pascualina is typically Argentinean...

On the other hand, if your readers are not likely to be interested in Latin American food, you can just describe:

Maria cut each of them a slice of spinach and egg pie as the Church bells rang out for Easter...

This is a matter for your judgement.
