Homemade Meat Pies/ Beef Empanada Recipe two ways | baked and fried pies

These meat pies or empanadas are my favorite comfort food! This recipe makes a flaky buttery crust on the outside and a moist flavorful and savory meat filling on the inside.
These pies are wrapped individually, making them perfect for on the go lunch, paired with a chill beverage. It also reheats really well in the microwave or toaster oven. I make them in bulk and store in a ziplock bag in the refrigerator or freezer for later use.

We used to go to this little tiny italian deli. Thats all they made there. Italian meatpies, they called them empanadas. There was the same type crust though I bet it was made a bit different, probably with italian products. But the filling was, hamburger, olive oil, I am guessing tomato paste, or a bit of red sauce. Chopped green olives with the red centers. Finely chopped yellow onions..maybe a bit of garlic. I am trying to temember if they were a touch spicy, maybe a little bit. Maybe italian seasoning. Oh they were heaven. The young couple went back to italy and closed the little deli. I did not think to ask if they would give me the recipe. Might try making them myself. I have also eaten meat pies with your filling also, very delicious. God Bless.

Never heard of that dish before but it’s similar to making a beef pot pie

[@cherishedoliviaTV]

I usually add red, yellow & green pepper to my pie filling

[@plfelay55]

Thanks so much. I never could bake, but that box cake recipe you posted I'm making them every month. I will try this recipe next. Question, would you use this same recipe if you're making like a coconut or fruit small pies?

[@ChefVicCuisine]

Bravo on this video! You got a new sub from me! I recently made a Key Lime Pie on my page too and *your dish looks amazing!* Hope to stay connected my fellow chef! 😁

[@cadillacscorner4151]

You can also use store bought. pie dough as well and crimp it with a fork to close and fry them and they also freeze well

[@MansaQueen]

Yes that’s right. I’ve tried a lot of brands but a lot of them have an after taste in my mouth. Goya is good for frying though. Thanks for watching

Oh thank you 🥰

[@ailindelvalle7483]

they are better fried!

[@sheririchardson7346]

The boullion is very high in sodium so the additoinal salt isn't needed.

[@MansaQueen]

Depends on how much you use. I don’t like salty food either ❤️

[@cherishedoliviaTV]
