These popular Argentine pastries are made by wrapping a seasoned ground beef filling in dough, folding it into a half-moon shape, and baking until golden. They are easy to serve individually and are a favorite at parties and gatherings.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make the dough

15 min

Add the melted butter, egg, cold water, and salt to the flour. Knead until a smooth dough forms, cover, and let it rest for 15 minutes.

2

Prepare the filling

15 min

Cook the ground beef with the onion and red bell pepper, then season with cumin, Turkish red pepper flakes, and salt. Set aside to cool.

3

Fill and seal

10 min

Roll out the dough into circles and place some of the cooled filling in the center of each. Fold each circle into a half-moon and pinch and fold the edges to seal securely.

4

Bake

25 min

Brush the tops with egg yolk and bake in an oven preheated to 200°C / 390°F until golden brown.

Reminder

Important: Pinch and fold the edges to seal them securely; otherwise, the filling may leak out during baking. Allergen information: Contains wheat (gluten), milk and dairy products, and eggs.
