A Lesson in Empanadas

So, I technically wasn't there for the whole process...but here's what I did learn! 

Step 1: Cut the masa (dough) in little pieces


Step 2: My job (obviously the most important, hehe) flatten the masa so it basically looks like a tortilla.

Step 3: Fill the masa with the miel de chiverre (fruity filling).

Step 3: After you fill the masa,  fold the ends like so :)

Step 4: Coat with egg and bake for an hour

The finished product!
