Baked Beef Empanadas
Ingredients:
1
cup finely chopped red potato
1
cup finely chopped onion
1
cup beef broth
1/4
teaspoon salt
1/4
teaspoon ground cumin
1/4
teaspoon ground allspice
1/4
teaspoon black pepper
1/2
pound boneless beef top sirloin, trimmed and diced
1
garlic clove, minced
1
tablespoon finely chopped cilantro
1
tablespoon cornstarch
1
tablespoon cold water
36
won ton wrappers
Cooking
spray
Fresh
cilantro sprigs (optional)
Instructions:
Combine
first 10 ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring
occasionally. Reduce heat; simmer 8 minutes or until potato is done, stirring
occasionally. Remove from heat. Cool.
Preheat
oven to 400 degrees. Place 2 baking sheets in oven for about 10 minutes.
Drain
meat mixture in a colander over a bowl. Discard liquid. Finely chop meat
mixture with a knife, or place in a food processor, and pulse 2 times or
until finely chopped.
Combine
cornstarch and water, stirring with a whisk.
Working
with one won ton wrapper at a time (cover the remaining won ton wrappers
with a damp towel to keep them from drying), spoon 1 tablespoon beef mixture
into center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges of each wrapper with the
cornstarch mixture. Bring 2 opposite corners together. Pinch the points
to seal, forming a triangle. Place filled wrapper on a wire rack. Repeat
the procedure with the remaining beef mixture, won ton wrappers, and cornstarch
mixture.
Remove
the baking sheets from the oven; coat baking sheets with cooking spray.
Arrange the empanadas in a single layer on baking sheets. Coat the empanadas
with cooking spray. Bake at 400 degrees for 8 minutes or until golden,
turning once. Garnish with cilantro, if desired.
