Turkey Mole Empanadas Recipe - Cooking Index
1/2 cup | 118ml | Ground turkey |
1/4 cup | 4g / 0.1oz | Cilantro - chopped |
1/4 cup | 15g / 0.5oz | Green onions - chopped |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Mole sauce |
1/8 teaspoon | 0.6ml | Salt |
2 | Puff pastry sheets | |
1 | Egg - beaten with 2 T water |
Preparation Time: 20 minutes Cooking Time: 10 minutes [Note: serving size is the number of pieces this recipe will yield, not the number of people it will serve.] 1. Combine filling ingredients together in a small bowl.
2. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
3. If necessary, roll out puff pastry slightly to be able to cut 12 3-inch circles from each sheet using a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass.
4. Place 1 T of filling on half of a puff pastry circle. Brush entire edge of circle with egg mixture. Fold pastry over yo form half-moon and crimp edges closed with a fork. Repeat with their rest of the circles.
5. Brush pastries with remaining egg wash. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
[Another Note: I assume the ground turkey is "Cooked Turkey" ground up, not the hamburger like stuff you get in the stores.]
This is another one of those recipes from the Chicago Tribune Magazine (11/14/93). This one provided by "Entertaining Co." as part of the menu for a cocktail party for 100 hosted by a business executive thanking her clients at her home in Chicago.
