Home-made Empanadas

Close up of the filling - 85% lean ground beef, chipotle white corn, black beans, onions, garlic, and various spices

Half an empanada so you can see everything
I found a recipe online for beef, corn, and black bean empanadas.  Made some adjustments with the spices and also used chipotle white corn instead of regular yellow corn, then used the deep fryer to cook them.  Super delicious - nice balance of meat to veggies and of course frying made the dough sooo yummy and flaky.  Also froze the left over empanadas so can just cook them quickly in the future if too lazy to make new food.
