Gluten Free Empanadas // The Spicy Kitchen

Learn how to make a traditional corn flour empanada, an authentic and naturally gluten free Spanish favourite!

HOW TO:
Follow instructions to make dough on the package of corn flour (usually involved a mixture of flour, salt, and water, but varies by brand)
Allow the dough to absorb the water
Spread a clear plastic sheet (not saran wrap, a cut up plastic bag will work) and place a ball of dough on the sheet
spread the dough out to make a flat circle about 1/2cm thick and about the size of a saucer
Place a small amount of chosen filling in the centre of the dough
fold the dough in half using the plastic sheet
Take a circular object (a bowl works well) and cut the empanada's signature half-moon shape
Deep fry until golden brown, or pan fry until crusty and bake in the oven at 350 for 10 minutes.
Enjoy!
