Method
- FIRST THINGS FIRST: Boil eggs if you dont already have some hard-boiled.
- Chop up the eggs, onions, and olives.
- FILLING: Saute onions and hamburger together.
- Pour off liquid.
- Add seasonings to taste.
- (About a teaspoon of each, but we like it with a little extra cumin.)
- Take off heat and add olives and eggs.
- Let cool.
- PASTRY: Mix flour, sugar, and 1 T. salt together.
- Cut butter into dry mixture like pastry dough.
- Roll dough thin.
- Cut 3-4 inch circles (roughly the size of a shortening can lid).
- Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle with a cube or grated cheese.
- Sparsely wet 1/2 of the edge of the dough with water.
- (So it will stick together.)
- Fold over and pinch edges closed with a fork or fingers.
- COOKING OPTIONS: Bake in pan at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
- OR Deep fry only until light brown in oil 380-400 degrees.
- Makes about 30 empanadas.
- Can be refrigerated or frozen and reheated later, and theyre just as good as fresh!
- (They seriously are, and Im not one for leftovers!)
