Indonesian Fried Empanadas

called Pastel in Indonesian language

it is pastry filled with vermicelli noodles, minced, vegetable and hard boiled eggs

here is how to make them with mold,

got this mold from the internet, cost less that US$1.-

Basically you have to prepare the filling first,

it is up to you what you prefer for the filling,

once cooked let the filling cool completely.

Dough:

500 gr of plain flour

1 egg, beaten

100 gr butter, melted

1 tsp salt

100 ml water

Mix together in a bowl: flour, beaten egg, salt and melted butter until it become a dough.

Add water, knead well until you can roll out the dough.

Let the dough rest for 15 minutes.

After that, roll out the dough, form into balls, roll them out one by one thinly.

Lay 1 dough/skin inside the mold, put the filling in it,

closed the dough (as in the picture),

press lightly and release,

 

then you will get the nice empanada shape.
