      This is a very common dish referred to by puerto ricans as pastellios. I made my own filling, but I used the dough recipe. I was quick and easy. I downsized the recipe and the only thing I changed, is added more salt. Its a very authentic recipe. Thanks for the recipe.

      I made these according to your recipe. There was "something" missing. It was golden raisins. When we lived in P.R. there were always golden raisins in them. After adding the raisins to the left-over meat, it made it much better but still not authentic enough.

      I thought this was so good! I bought premade empanda dough, instead of making it myself, but the filling was delicious and the overall product superb! Thanks!

      Changed things a bit. I used frozen empanadas. I whole onion,pepper and no salt and 1 pkg of goya picante seasoning and 1 pkg goya con azafran. We like things very spicy. It was very good. I just had empanadas at a party and wanted them more seasoned. I also fried them on top of the stove. Med until crispy.

      I'm pretty sure that pastellios are the Dominican name for this...since in PR we always called them empanadas. I use a different filling, but the crust is nice. Not the same as mom's, but nice.
