Steps:
- Dough - Mix flour, salt, butter (slice up the stick of butter first) and egg with a food processor or mixer. Start adding water slowly until you get a nice stretchy dough consistency.
- The dough shouldn't be sticky, if it is, add more flour to the mix. Cover and place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This step is not absolutely necessary, but it does make the dough easier to work with.
- Beef Filling - Season ground beef with Adobo to desired taste, add chopped garlic cloves and brown the meat in a skillet. You may also use salt and pepper instead of Adobo if you prefer.
- Once meat is cooked add Sofrito, Sazon, tomato sauce, onions, green peppers, red peppers and potatoes. Let it simmer until potatoes are tender.
- Take your dough and roll it out with a rolling pin. Make sure to sprinkle flour on the surface, your rolling pin and hands to prevent the dough from sticking. Once your roll the dough out, use a cup or a round cookie cutter to cut circular shapes.
- Place a spoonful of beef filling on the dough and fold it shut.
- My favorite method for sealing empanadillas is to use a fork. Simply press on the edge with a fork on both sides and you're done.
- Fry each side of the empanadilla in hot oil. Simply remove when the empandilla gets a light golden color.
GROUND BEEF TURNOVERS
Meet the Cook: Traditional meat pies aren't among my husband's favorites. He likes these so much, however, that he even eats them cold! I've found they're a great lunch for a haying crew as well. Brian and I have a son, 11 months. -Wendy Tomlinson, Echo Bay, Ontario

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a bowl whisk together the flour, the baking powder, and the salt. In a bowl with an electric mixer cream together the butter and the sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, beat in the vanilla and the egg, and beat in the flour mixture in batches alternately with the milk. Chill the dough, dusted with flour and wrapped in plastic wrap, in the freezer for 10 minutes.
- Divide the dough into fourths and roll out 1 piece of the dough 1/8 inch thick on a well-floured surface, keeping the remaining pieces covered and chilled. Cut a 4-inch round from the dough, brush off any excess flour, and brush the edges with water. Put 1 tablespoon of the mincemeat in the center of the round, fold the dough over to enclose the mincemeat, and pinch the edges together to seal them. Make 3 more turnovers in the same manner with the remaining dough and mincemeat. Bake the turnovers on a buttered baking sheet in the middle of the oven for 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden.
