Tuna Empanadas Recipe by Gerard Mallari
Cooking Instructions 2 hr 30 mins 1 Crust. Mix the flour and salt together in a large bowl. Add the butter and shortening. 2 Measure 1/2 cup (120ml) of water in a cup. Add ice. Stir it around. From that, measure 1/2 cup (120ml) of water– since the ice has melted a bit. Drizzle the cold water in, 1 Tablespoon (15ml) at a time, and stir with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon after every Tablespoon (15ml) added. Do not add any more water than you need to. Stop adding water when the dough begins to form large clumps. 3 Transfer the pie dough to a floured work surface. The dough should come together easily and should not feel overly sticky. Using floured hands, fold the dough into itself until the flour is fully incorporated into the fats. Form it into a ball. Divide dough in half. Flatten each half into 1-inch thick discs using your hands. 4 Wrap each tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. 5 When rolling out the chilled pie dough discs to use in your pie, always use gentle force with your rolling pin. Start from the center of the disc and work your way out in all directions, turning the dough with your hands as you go. Visible specks of butter and fat in the dough are perfectly normal and expected! 6 Form small discs about 5 inches in diameter and at least.25 inch thick or your desired thickness. 7 Fill your pie with the tuna filling about 3 tablespoons of the tuna on one side of your crust then add cheese. Then fold sealing the sides using fork. 8 I bake my empanadas rather than frying. At 350 degrees for 10 mins in the oven. 1 Crust. Mix the flour and salt together in a large bowl.
