Baked Pork Empanadas
A Glass of Sugar Cane,anyone?
Sugar Cane in 8 Qt pot( I add carrot)
Prepared for the oven.
Inspired By Talented Chef Gertrude in SnippetsOfMyLife to baked Pork Empanadas.I used pork in my filling instead of beef.My whole chicken is still frozen. While I'm making the Empanadas,Elliot asking what for lunch?.I told him that he have to wait 30 minutes for me to bake Empanadas but he can't wait,said too hungry,so I deep fried 2 pieces just for him.He even complaint that I put too much onion and green pepper,not enough meat.Complaint but still eat!!I found out that baked Empanadas is better than fried in the appearance and taste. Most important healthy too.
Today, I wake up early at 8.00 a.m by a Porter medic.We had an appointment for blood test and medical checkup which send by the insurance company.I normally won't wake up so early because Mishu keep me stay awake at night until wee hours.After finish baking Empanandas,I try to made Chef Gertrude Apple Cake UpSide Down but doom to failure!!.I don't have the right measurement!.Too much sugar and the cake break to small pieces when I removed from the baking pan.Called Chef Gertrude,she told me that I need to make the measurement on the dot!.Lesson numbers one!!I'm kind of lazy and short cut person,so I don't really bother with the exact measurement.Thinking it will be alright but turn up disaster!!That is my fault,bad for attitude!.But the cake taste very good beside too sweet!!.Elliot love sweet dessert but he still said it's too too sweet.Sorry! I don't dare to display the damaged!!.Malu only!
While baking cake and Empanadas,I also brew fermented sugar cane for drink..Elliot quickly switch on the living room exhaust to suck away the trap hot air in the house.I guess my stoves been on the whole day and the hot air really bother him.I have gas propane stoves and oven instead of electricity stoves.We modified our dryer,oven and stoves to use propane because of safety and lower cost compare with electricity.
Mishu refused to drink sugar cane drink that I been brewed for 5 hours!.How dare is she?.She ask me to open a bottle of Gatorade for her!.Again like father like daughter!!.
Happy Merdeka 50 years to everybody.The true Malaysian Spirit!!

Beachlover, your empanadas looks really good. You really pandai pinch the edges. So cantiklah. Can send to the Latin grocery store to sell already :)Sorry about your apple upside down cake. Make sure the next time you really have to follow the exact measurement when comes to baking. Cook wise you can agak agak but not baking :)
beachlover,
Did you glazed the empanadas with egg yolk? Look so shinny on the skin. Yum Yum. I tried to find empanadas skin in the grocery frozen section tapi tak jumpa lah..
Beachlover,
Your empanadas look delicious. It reminds me of Kaya Kok or whatever its called. Let me see when I can gather courage to try Getrude's recipe.
Is your sugar cane fresh or is it dried? (don't know if there is such thing as dried sugar cane)
Gert,I copy your recipe and idea all the time.The only thing I good at is krim edge of kari pap.I ikut a Malay sifu to krim not how to make dough.Now I regret .It's very easy.The last time I make it almost 13 years ago..Cannot sell at store nanti orang laugh at me..Thanks for your compliments!!.and your advise too!
CAt,yes I brush the skin with egg.Do your place alot of Latino or Mexican?.I go to latino supermarket to get the skin.So many brand and flavor too.I just grab the one on sale!! 65 sent perpack for 10 pcs

You can find dried sugar cane with arrow root in any asian supermarket.It's just 50 cents a pack.I only used 2 packet and the drink look so yellow.It's a real sugar cane!!.inexpensive ,healthy and easy.Let me know if you wanna the pix of the packet.
