Looks very delicious and the dough looks so good. Congrats! I'm from Argentina but I live overseas so it's hard to make these from scratch now 😅 kudos to you!

Finally had Empanadas over Christmas when we were at Pike Market, there was some folks with a little cart. They were...okay. Yours look way better, I'll give yours a try. Thank you.

I have major empanadas before, they were so delicious.

Hi Dave, they look scrumdidliumpsious😋 Apart from adding the raisins, we in the UK would call them pasties x

Dave, great recipe & yes on us & the girls, we have a mexican sister - in - law & her 3 grown daughters & my wife learned to cook mexican recipes from them, so my wife may want to be the one to make this dish. With that many emps, baking is the the best way to go, but if you are only going to make appx. 4 - 8, deep fry them in vegetable oil & they are even better. I will make the 2 sides, guacamole & mexican rice, will be delicious . Virgin( no alcohol) mango Margheritas for all of us to drink. How's that sound ? Keep your stick on the ice pal. btw, if you have queso fresco cheese in your area, try/use that in your emps as it is rated # 1 mexican cheese & like you said try to find a block to fresh grate yourself instead of pre-shredded as the fresh grated is much better. Also, empanadas are the mexican version of Italian Stromboli or a calzone, the differences are the the Italian Stromboli & calzone use pizza sauce the one has the sauce inside the dough & the other does not as you dip it in a bowl of sauce. They also have a jumbolii which is 2-3 times the size of a Stromboli but exactly the the same otherwise

Nice! Thank you. You can also use a pizza cutter to even up the edges after crimping them shut.

[Kiss__Kiss]

Interesting recipe, Dave. May have to try this some day.. Emphasis on some day lol

[debbiemcclure]

These look amazing Dave!!!! Tyfs God bless you

[lyncrawford]

Dave, these just look like Cornish Pasties. They don't put peppers or garlic in them. These look delicious. Hugs from Belfast xxx❤❤❤

[beckyhines]

Hey Dave these look good. I've never had very good luck with pie dough or any kind of dough. Could we use like the Pillsbury pie dough if I don't have luck with making it?

[siewboilim]

Here in Malaysia we called it curry puffs because the filling is fried with curry paste.

[stevelogan]

Dave, did you get my post on here ? I know you have been busy

[DragonFruitDelish]

Hi, do I use the same dough recipe if I decided to fry the empanadas instead of bakimg them? Do I have to put the egg wash if I’m going to fry the empanadas? I’d likely not add green beans and corn, but will use the common empanada veggies.
