The problem with catupiry anywhere is that there is the good one and the ones that taste like starch. If you are eating somewhere that uses the good one, the filling is probably good as well, making it a matter of taste.

If it uses the bad one, there is no saving your coxinha.

When the filling is properly moist and juicy, I prefer without.

With, naturally. Dois Corações in Curitiba makes some of the best!

There is only one true coxinha, the original, and it doesn't have catupiry inside. Call this fried thing a catupiry ball or whatever, but do not call it coxinha.

Authentic Brazilian culinary is about giving tradition the middle finger and trying new things all the time. So go for Coxinha com Catupiry

It is none of my business what you do with your middle finger, but tradition and innovation are not the same.

Anyway, enjoy your catupiry-fried balls.
