Empanadas

Friday 27 October 2006

Another cooking class today, yum! We made empanadas, one of the most common Argentine dishes that exists. Basically, it is meat or vegetables, but usually meat, wrapped in dough and baked. You can get them all over town, and they are often eaten as a snack between meals. I love empanadas, and have to be careful not to make myself sick of them by eating them too often!

You know, I've made enough dumplings by now that you'd think that the slightly larger empanada would be a piece of cake, but all of mine turned how horrible and messy. They barely held together in the oven. I promise to improve, however, before making them for any of you!
