ARGENTINEAN EMPANADAS RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Argentinean Empanadas Recipe - Food.com image

Empanadas are very popular as a street food in South America. Essentially, it is a crescent-shaped pastry with a filling, which may vary greatly by region or preference. Empanadas can be fried or baked, and may use a variety of fillings from meat or seafood to fruit or cheese. While this recipe uses the filling most popular in Buenos Aires, you can fill an empanada with virtually anything you please, so experiment! Tip: A recipe for empanada dough is given here, but they can be found in the frozen pastry section of many specialty or Hispanic groceries. If you are in a rush or just feeling lazy, frozen puff pastry can serve as an adequate substitute. Note: To the reviewer who said the flavor did not seem authentic, you probably haven't had meat empanadas from Argentina then! I am Argentine, and the ground beef empanadas you find there *always* have cumin. Other cultures may have different fillings.

Total Time 1 hours 55 minutes

Prep Time 1 hours 15 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield 15-20 empanadas, 12-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 -2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup cold margarine or 3/4 cup butter, cut into small cubes
2 eggs
2/3 cup cold water
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 lb ground beef (or turkey or chicken for a lower-fat variation)
4 hard-boiled eggs
1 cup stuffed green olive
handful raisins (optional. This is supposedly a common ingredient, but I have never used them)
1 large onion
3 garlic cloves
2 -3 tablespoons ground cumin powder
1 teaspoon chili pepper flakes
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Sift the flour, mix the sifted flour and salt in a large bowl.
  • Mix in the solid margarine or butter with your fingers, (best to cross cut with two knives). The flour should have an even, coarse texture, with the margarine lumps no larger than a pea.
  • Beat together the water, eggs, and vinegar in a bowl. Slowly mix into the flour mixture, until you have the desired consistency (it should not be too sticky, but still malleable).
  • Place the mixture on a floured surface. Knead with the heel of your hand to bring the dough together.
  • Cover the dough and allow to sit in a cool place for at least an hour.
  • Roll out the dough until it is about 1/8 of an inch (0.3 cm) thick. Cut into circles about 4-6 inches (10 - 15 cm) in diameter and lightly flour them.
  • Heat some oil in a large saucepan. Mince the onions and garlic, and add to the pan. Cook until the onions become translucent.
  • Add the ground meat. Break it up with with a spoon and cook, stirring until lightly browned. Drain off fat.
  • Mix in the cumin, pepper flakes, and sugar. Adjust to taste.
  • Chop the hard boiled eggs and halve the stuffed olives. Carefully mix into the meat mixture. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Preheat the oven to 375ºF/200ºC.
  • Stuff the empanada dough wrappers. Place 2-3 tablespoons of the filling in the center of each wrapper. Dampen the outer perimeter of the dough.
  • Fold over, forming a semicircle. Pinch a corner of the dough, and then fold that section onto itself. Pinch and pull out another 1/2-inch (1.2 cm) section and fold over, so that it slightly overlaps the first piece. Repeat along the length of the folded side, until you create a braided or twisted seal.
  • If desired, brush the tops of the empanadas with beaten egg yolk for a nice golden color.
  • Place the folded empanadas on a greased cookie sheet. Bake 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

ARGENTINE MEAT EMPANADAS RECIPE | ALLRECIPES



Argentine Meat Empanadas Recipe | Allrecipes image

My original version for the Argentinean recipe. Rich and delicious. Any meat can be used for this recipe, just be sure to cut it up into tiny pieces.

Provided by Liliana

Categories     World Cuisine    Latin American    South American    Argentinian

Yield 10 depending on size of pastry used

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup shortening
2 onions, chopped
1 pound lean ground beef
2 teaspoons Hungarian sweet paprika
¾ teaspoon hot paprika
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
¼ cup raisins
½ cup pitted green olives, chopped
2 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
salt to taste
1 (17.5 ounce) package frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed

Steps:

  • In a saute; pan melt the shortening and add the chopped onions. Cook the onions until just before they begin to turn golden. Remove from the heat and stir in the sweet paprika, hot paprika, crushed red pepper flakes and salt to taste.
  • Spread the meat on a sieve and pour boiling water on it for partial cooking. Allow meat to cool. Place meat in a dish add salt to taste, cumin and vinegar. Mix and add the meat to the onion mixture. Mix well and place on a flat to dish to cool and harden.
  • Cut puff pastry dough into 10 round shells. Place a spoonful of the meat mixture on each round; add some of the raisins, olives and hard boiled egg. Avoid reaching the edges of the pastry with the filling because its oiliness will prevent good sealing. Slightly wet the edge of the pastry, fold in two and stick edges together. The shape should resemble that of a half-moon. You should have a 2/3 to 1/2 inch flat edge of pastry to work with. Seal by twisting edge, step by step, between thumb and index finger, making sure to add pressure before releasing the pinch and moving on to the next curl. Other sealing procedures like pinching without curling or using a fork to seal will not prevent juice leaks during baking, and empanadas must be juicy.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Place empanadas on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Be sure to prick each empanada with a fork near the curl to allow steam to escape during baking. Glaze with egg for shine and bake until golden, about 20 to 30 minutes.

This recipe was developed in honor of BA contributor Gaby Melian’s mother, who told her that if you left out the green pepper, it wasn’t an empanada. You could add a hard-boiled egg to the filling, which is typical in Argentina, but in Gaby’s house, after years of tasting and perfecting, they prefer the texture without it.
