Original recipe yields 10 servings
2 lb. fresh mushrooms, finely chopped
1 pkg. (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed, well drained and squeezed dry
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup frozen corn
1 pkg. (14 oz.) frozen turnover (empanada) dough (10 disks), thawed
2 cups oil
Let's Make It
1
Heat dressing in medium skillet on medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, spinach, onions and garlic; cook 18 min. or until mushrooms are tender and liquid is cooked off, stirring occasionally. Stir in corn and Singles pieces; cook and stir 2 to 3 min. or until Singles are melted. Remove from heat; cool completely.
2
Roll out dough disks, 1 at a time, on lightly floured surface to 5-1/2-inch diameter. Spoon mushroom mixture onto centers of dough rounds, adding about 1/3 cup to each. Lightly moisten edges with water; fold in half to enclose filling. Press lightly on tops to remove air pockets; seal edges with fork.
3
Heat oil in medium deep skillet to 375ºF. Add 3 or 4 empanadas; cook 3 to 4 min. or until golden brown on both sides, turning after 2 min. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining empanadas. Cool slightly.
Kitchen Tips
Tip 1
Serving Suggestion
Serve with a mixed green salad and hot cooked rice.
Tip 2
Make Ahead
These delicious empanadas can be assembled ahead of time; place between 2 sheets of waxed paper or parchment paper in airtight container. Refrigerate up to 2 days. Let stand at room temperature 15 min. before cooking as directed.
Tip 3
Note
It's very important to make sure the empanadas are completely sealed before frying. Any openings can allow the filling to leak out causing the oil to spatter.
