Content: Add the remaining half of the melted lard, and pulse to combine. If using a stand mixer, turn the mixer to low setting and slowly add the liquid until thoroughly incorporated. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead just enough to form a smooth dough. Shape into a flat round disc, then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until cool. Beef Empanadas
Melt the lard in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add the minced onion and saute until turning lightly golden, then add the lean ground beef and seasoning including salt, pepper, cumin, and smoked paprika. Cook until the ground beef is lightly browned and no longer pink inside. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the chilled empanada dough as thin as possible, at least ⅛ inch in thickness. Cut rounds that are about 6 inches in diameter (and I usually make mine a bit oval rather than round).
