BEEF AND POTATO EMPANADAS WITH SALSA PICANTE



Beef and Potato Empanadas With Salsa Picante image

Yet another traditional Colombian dish that I learned to make from my mother-in-law. To eat, put a little bit of the picante on each bite. It's one of my favorite meals.**Just a note, until the elves edit this for me, it should be 1/2 lb hamburger meat, not 1 lb. Sorry about that!**

Provided by SlipC

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 50m

Yield 6 empanadas

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 large white onion, finely chopped
3 large tomatoes, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
1 -2 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped (depending on how hot you want it)
2 limes, juice of
1 teaspoon olive oil
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1/2 lb hamburger meat
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons goya adobo seasoning, with comino (seasoning mix made by Goya)
1 (2 g) package goya sazon goya with coriander and annatto (another Goya mix)
water
2 cups pre-cooked white cornmeal (I use the brand P.A.N.)
2 1/2 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
vegetable oil

Steps:

  • To Prepare the Salsa Picante.
  • Prepare the day before you plan to make the empanadas.
  • In a medium sized container with a lid, mix all ingredients for the salsa picante.
  • Cover tightly, and put in the fridge for at least overnight, preferably a bit longer, in order to let the flavors blend.
  • Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
  • To Prepare the Filling.
  • In large skillet, sauté hamburger meat, onions, and garlic over medium heat until the hamburger meat is crumbled up and browned.
  • In a large pot, combine the browned meat mixture with the remaining filling ingredients.
  • Cover mixture with 1/2 inch of water and bring to boil.
  • Let boil for one minute, then cover and turn heat to low.
  • Simmer, stirring occasionally, for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the water is absorbed.
  • If the water boils out before the potatoes are tender, add more water, 1/4 cup at a time until the potatoes are tender and the water is all absorbed.
  • When the filling is ready, turn off heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • To Prepare the Dough:.
  • While the filling mixture is cooling, combine all the dough ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Knead until smooth and form.
  • When the filling mixture is cooled to room temperature, divide dough into 6 equal parts.
  • Roll each part up into a ball, and shape into a circle, approximately 1/8" inch thick (I use my hands for this, I find that a rolling pin only sticks to the dough).
  • In the center of each circle, place approximately 2 Tbsp of filling.
  • (Leave a margin of about 1/4-1/2" around the filling, in order to fold the empanada).
  • Fold the dough in half, so it covers the filling.
  • Pinch the edges together.
  • If there are any cracks in the dough, or around the edges, simply put a little bit of water on your finger and smooth the cracks together.
  • Deep fry the empanadas in hot vegetable oil until the outsides are golden brown.
  • Serve with Salsa Picante.

SALSA PICANTE FOR HOME CANNING



Salsa Picante for Home Canning image

This is from the New Mexico Department of Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service via http://www.fiery-foods.com/dave/canning.asp. This site has a wonderful explanation for how to & why of water bath processing. Per this site, this recipe was designed for hot water processing (suggesting the acidity is high enough to be safe). Do not alter the ratios unless it is to increase vinegar as adding more low acid vegies like peppers, onions, cilantro, garlic could result in an unsafe product (think botulism). This is the case for any home canning - so don't be put off. Oh, this salsa is rated "Medium-Hot" on that site so we will know soon!

Provided by Jonathan Waxman

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds hanger steak
Coarse sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 medium yellow onion, sliced
2 hatch or red fresno chilies, thinly sliced (remove the seeds if desired)
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • To tenderize the steak, poke the steak throughout with a fork or meat prongs. With a sharp knife, cut out and discard the sinew in the center of the steak. Season liberally with salt and coarsely ground black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and sear each side, about 3 minutes per side.
  • To make the salsa, cut the onions into rings. Slice the chilies and garlic. Add onions to the pan with the steak, season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the chilies to the pan, and add a little more olive oil, if necessary. After a few minutes, add the garlic to the pan. Drizzle with the vinegar. Continue to cook the steak until it is medium-rare, 10 to 12 minutes. Rest the steak on a cutting board for about 10 minutes.
