Ingredients

  • 1 bunch Spring Onions
  • Dash Olive Oil
  • 1 finely sliced Red Chilli
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 350g Prawns
  • 75g Feta
  • 15g Butter
  • 250g Plain Flour
  • 1 Seperated Egg
  • 1/2 tsp White Wine Vinegar

Instructions

1
STEP 1 To make the flour base, rub the margarine into the baking flour and then empty in the egg white and half the yolk (keep the rest), acetic liquid, a pinch of table salt and enough cold moisture to make a soft flour base.
2
work the flour base on a floured surface until velvety and then wrap and rest for 30 mins.
3
STEP 2 fiery up the oven to 180c/fan 160c/gas 4.
4
Trim the green ends of the spring onions and then finely carve the rest.
5
fiery up a little fat in a skillet and sauté them gently until soft but not browned.
6
empty in the chilli and garlic, agitate and then empty in the prawns and fiery up until they are opaque.
7
augment the taste well.
8
Scoop out the prawns and bubble the juices until they thicken, then empty in back the prawns.
9
STEP 3 Divide the empanada flour base into eight balls and roll out to thin circles on a floured surface.
10
Put some filling on one half of the flour base, shower the feta on top and fold the other half over.
11
Trim the edge and then fold and crimp the flour base together so the empanada is tightly sealed, put it on an oiled baking sheet either on its side or sitting on its un-crimped edge like a cornish pasty.
12
Repeat with the remaining flour base and mixture.
13
agitate the leftover egg yolk with a splash of moisture and brush the top of the empanadas.
14
STEP 4 toast for 30 mins or until golden and slightly crisp around the edges.
