Holiday Cooking – Empanadas
A fond childhood memory of mine would be making empanadas with my mother and whoever else she could rope into helping for special occasions and/or holidays. I recently tried her recipe on my own, with results that I can be proud of. Future empanada maker here I come – if only I can lasso a few helpers of my own.
Filled with ground sirloin, hard boiled egg, green olives and golden raisins.
My favorite Philadelphia empanadas are at Mixto restaurant on 11th and Pine.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Lovely! Is there a vegetarian recipe? Yum!
There is indeed! With corn, called humitas. Here’s a recipe from the food network: http://bit.ly/ht61zh
