Knead the dough
5 minKnead the whole cornmeal with the boiling water and salt into a smooth dough.
A specialty of Colombia's coastal towns, fish empanadas are made by filling a dough kneaded from whole cornmeal with a tuna and vegetable mixture, then baking rather than frying. Using the oven instead of hot oil gives the same crisp texture with far less fat.
Knead the whole cornmeal with the boiling water and salt into a smooth dough.
Cover the dough with cling film and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Sauté the onion, red pepper and tomato in olive oil for 8 minutes until softened, then add the drained tuna and stir for 2 more minutes.
Roll the dough into small rounds, place filling in the centre of each, fold into a half-moon shape and seal the edges tightly.
Brush the empanadas with beaten egg and bake in an oven preheated to 200°C for 25 minutes until golden.
If the dough isn't sealed tightly, the filling will leak out during baking. Allergens: contains fish (tuna), egg.
Kneading the cornmeal with boiling water makes the dough shape more easily without cracking.
Admin DadaGastro · verified in test kitchenİç harcı biraz fazla ıslak kaldı, doldururken taşmaması için elimle biraz suyunu süzmem gerekti. Domatesi eklemeden önce tohumlarını çıkarsaydım daha iyi olurmuş, bir dahaki sefere bu detaya dikkat edeceğim.
Haklısınız, domatesin tohumlu suyu harcı sulandırabiliyor; tohumları ayıklayıp süzmek kıvamı gözle görülür şekilde iyileştirir, bunu deneyebilirsiniz.
Hamuru 10 dakika dinlendirdim ama yine de açarken kenarları çatladı, kaynar su miktarını biraz artırmam gerekiyormuş. 25 dakikalık pişirmeden sonra üstü güzel altın rengi oldu.
