by Willie Brickner (Author)

An empanada is a type of baked or fried turnover consisting of pastry and filling, common in Southern European, Latin American, and the Philippines cultures. The name comes from the Galician verb seminar and translates as "unbreaded", that is, wrapped or coated in bread. They are made by folding dough over a filling, which may consist of meat, cheese, tomato, corn, or other ingredients, and then cooking the resulting turnover, either by baking or frying.

Making homemade empanada dough is not as hard as you might think, especially if you have a food processor. And even if you don't have one, it is still pretty easy to make by hand because the dough doesn't need to be overworked, and requires minimal kneading.
