Directions
Beef/Pork Empanadas (Adopted 2006), These are great empanadas You can add cooked, diced white or sweet potato Make them any size you want They make wonderful appetizers served warm , The meat mixture is a 5 star Though I subbed dried cranberries instead of raisins Just what I had on hand and I prefer them The rest of the directions are terrible How big are the dough cutouts? 35 pieces? You are kidding me! used a glass 2 1/2 in diameter and got 15 Takes way longer than 5 minutes to simmer out all of the liquid I have a pile of meat left What to do now? Guess I might have to make another batch of dough Will freeze those and/or deliver them to the 2 kids in college I know the men in my house will love these but, the person who counts (ME) is not impressed , The meat mixture is a 5 star Though I subbed dried cranberries instead of raisins Just what I had on hand and I prefer them The rest of the directions are terrible How big are the dough cutouts? 35 pieces?
