Ingredients:
Dough:
4&1/2 cups all purpose flour
1&1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup shortening
1&1/4 cups water or as much is needed
Filling:
2-2&1/2 lbs. Hamburger( this recipe can make approximately 15-20 empanadas. Recipe can be reduced to make a smaller amount.)
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 small onion diced
1 red pepper diced.
3 large hard boiled eggs, cooled and peeled
Oil for deep frying
Directions:
Mix flour and salt, add shortening. And then, mix with a pastry blender.
Add water in increments.
Once the mass takes consistency, knead on a lightly floured surface and wrap in cling wrap and chill for an hour.
Brown hamburger with onion & red pepper. Drain grease and add Patagonia Mix. Chill mixture for 45 minutes- 1 hour.
Pour oil into a deep fryer or Dutch oven. Take your dough out. Measure out 2 inch balls of dough and roll out into discs with a rolling pin.
Fill each with 2-3 teaspoons of meat mixture, then fold the disc over and either pinch dough together or crimp with a fork.
Place into oil and fry until golden brown. Finally, place on a cooling rack which has a cookie sheet lined with paper towels underneath to cool slightly.
Extra tip: If you want, raisins can also be added to the filling.
