EMPANADAS - BEEF TURNOVERS
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- 1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, about 10 minutes. Add onions and cook until soft, about 5 minutes more. Stir in tomato sauce, olives, Sofrito, Sazón, garlic, oregano and black pepper. Lower heat to medium-low and simmer until mixture thickens, about 15 minutes.
- 2. On a lightly floured work surface, using a rolling pin, roll out discos until 1/2" larger in diameter. Spoon about 1 tbsp. meat mixture into middle, fold in half to form a half moon; moisten edges with water and pinch to seal closed, or seal with a fork.
- 3. Fill a deep saucepan with oil to a depth of 2 1/2". Heat oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking (350°F on deep-fry thermometer). Cook Empanadas in batches until crisp and golden brown, flipping once, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
