Empanadas de carne are a classic Argentine dish that is loved by many. The secret to making delicious empanadas de carne lies in the filling. To make the filling, you will need ground beef, onions, garlic, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, pepper, and olives. Start by sautéing the onions and garlic until they are soft and translucent. Then, add the ground beef and cook until it is browned. Next, add the spices and seasonings, along with the olives. Let the filling cool before using it to fill the empanada dough. The dough can be made with flour, salt, butter, and water. Mix the ingredients together until a dough forms, then roll it out and cut it into circles. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle, fold the dough over, and seal the edges. Finally, bake the empanadas in a preheated oven until they are golden brown and crispy. Serve them hot with chimichurri sauce for a truly authentic Argentine experience.
