Description

These grilled creole empanadas are an Argentine classic that never fails. The combination of juicy ground meat, onion, red pepper and aromatic spices make this snack a real delight. Perfect for sharing at a family gathering or with friends, these empanadas are easy to prepare with the help of the Thermomix®. I always make them for Sunday barbecues and they disappear in the blink of an eye! If you dare, you can add some raisins for a sweet and different touch. Go ahead and try them!
