Empanadas are a popular street food and fun to re-create in your own kitchen. These empanadas have a hearty beef and vegetable filling encased in tender cream cheese pastry crust. Traditionally empanadas are fried, but Lucinda prefers to make a healthy version by baking them. From the book "Mad Hungry," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Artisan Books).

Steps to make Beef Empanadas:
  1. To make the filling; place a pot or pan on medium flame. Add vegetable oil and saute the sliced onion for about 2 minutes. Add the minced meat and stir fry for about 3 minutes.
  2. Add the spices and stir fry for another minute. Add water or beef stock. Just enough to steam the beef and potatoes. Add the cooked potatoes and carrot. Add seasoning cube and salt to taste. Cover and allow to simmer for about 4-5 minutes.
  3. Make a slurry using 1/2 tablespoon flour and 2 table spoons water. This is added to the filling to keep it moist. Cook for about 2 minutes and take off the heat. Allow the filling to cool completely before using.
  4. To make the dough; sift flour and baking powder in a mixing bowl, rubb in the butter with your palm to achieve a crumb texture. Break in the egg and add the vinegar.
  5. Mix and add cold water gradually till a soft dough is formed. Knead for just 30 second. Do not over work the dough.
  6. Wrap with a cling film and place in the fridge to rest for at least an hour. After an hour, flour your work surface and roll out the dough. Use a round cutter to cut out circles.
  7. Place the filling at the middle of the cut out dough. Do don't over fill to avoid spilling. Fold the dough into half. And use a fork or your fingers to crimp the edges.
  8. You can decide to either bake them at this point. But remember to egg wash before placing in the oven. As for me, I fried them on medium heat until golden brown and crispy. Drain them on a paper towel and serve. Enjoy😍😉

Wrap dough around filling to form empanada, pressing edges together. Fold edge back and finish by pinching little pleats or crimping with a fork.
