Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup cold butter
• 1/2 cup cold water
• 1 lb ground beef
• 1/2 cup diced onion
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1/2 cup frozen peas
• 1 egg

Directions

1. Mix flour and cold butter until crumbly, then slowly add cold water and stir until a smooth dough forms. Wrap and chill for 20 minutes.
2. Brown ground beef and onion in a skillet over medium heat until cooked through. Stir in cumin and peas, season with salt and pepper, then let the filling cool.
3. Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll dough out on a floured surface and cut into 5-inch circles.
4. Place a spoonful of filling onto each dough circle. Fold the dough over and press the edges together, then crimp with a fork to seal.
5. Beat the egg and brush it over each empanada. Arrange on a lined baking sheet.
6. Bake for 22 to 25 minutes until the empanadas are golden brown. Let cool a few minutes before serving.
