  4. Let dough stand in warm place until doble in size.
  5. Meanwhile, in a little bit of olive oil, cook the onion in small pieces until soft but not brown. Add meat and cook for 5 minutes. Add a pinch of paprika and let stand.
  6. One the dough is ready , divide it in two parts.

  8. Cover the dough with the meat and onion mixture.

  13. Cook in oven 170º C, about 1 hour until golden brown.

Most of the Empanada that are sold here are sweet. I will have to figure out the ounces to grams and try this..


Hola Pilar. Qué buena pinta tiene tu empanada! Do you have a recipe or any suggestions to replace the meat with a tuna filling?


Imorente: con un poquito de cebolla pochada y un par de latas grandes de atún. Añades unos huevos picaditos y listo.


Very nice recipe! If you were to make smaller individual servings, any idea on how long to cook them?


Sheperdrescue: thanks for your comment. For smaller servings, it will have to cook for about 20-25 minutes. I think its enough.
