To flatten them, I took a medium size Ziploc baggie, cut the seal top off, and opened up the two sides, leaving the bottom intact. Open it up flat, place the dough ball in the centre, then flip the other side over top. Then I use my rolling pin to roll them out. The baggie is easy to wash and keep in the drawer for next time.
My parents are from Cali Colombia and they've never made us chicken empanadas. Truthfully, I didn't even know that us Colombians make them with chicken also, lol. My mom and grandmother made strictly beef empanadas, and not that ground beef stuff. Colombian beef empanadas with little chunks of beef and potatoes. They're delicious!!! I learned to make them from my grandmother and my mom. Gotta keep tradition alive.

As a Vietnamese, I’ve watched this video a few times. I’m attempting to make empanadas but ground beef. Your video is very informative and detailed. Wish me luck. 😂
So lovely your recipe about the colombian empanadas which potatos and chiken i love it. Adoré tu receta de empanadas colombianas de pollo con papas. Soy colombo-venezola criada en Venezuela, y sabes en Venezuela no se le coloca papas, así que me parece algo bello y exótico esta forma de hacerla con papas porque a pesar de que mis padres nacieron en Colombia nunca las he probado, pero lo haré gracias mil por tu receta, is so amazin and yuumi. I love it, now i´m new fallow for your channel in RUclips.
Thank you for your Colombian empanadas recipe you are so generous THUMBS UP. take care can you also publish the sauce or dip recipe..thank you again. from. Filipina fan.
Using the bowl to cut the empanadas is tried and true. My mom taught me this trick too, but I like how my grandma would make the empanadas without cutting the edges. My grandmother would just closed the empanadas and seal them without cutting the edges. If there was any left over dough at the edges you just fry them like that, so you have these tasty fried crispy/crunchy edges, that in my opinion elevate the texture of empanada dough when fried, hence making the empanadas even better.
WOW, it looks yummy. May I ask what is the shelf life of these empanadas? How long can I keep them in the fridge or freezer? God bless and keep it up. 💕💕💕
Wow this is a fantastic recipe, best I have seen. I am from the Uk and find it difficult to find some Colombian ingredients. Can you send recipe for the green sauce please, my main problem is I want to make badeja paisa and watched a few videos, do you plan to make a video and on how to make Colombian sausage as can’t get them in UK,
@it'srhodes, Hi!!! I've started to prepare the chicken stuffing for tomorrow when I will mix the masa. But I'm wondering for another batch: is it possible to prepare the entire empanadas then refrigerate or freeze for frying at a later time / on another day? I'd like to prepare a mass amount to sell as street food. Or to have street vendors / cafe cooks pop frozen, unfried empanadas into hot oil on demand. I'm in South America where empanadas are not available so this kind of food will be a hit, and there is no competition. My ex is Colombian and he introduced me to all sorts of Colombian food. Empanadas is on my favorite snack foods. We don't have fresh cilantro available here so I'll have to grow it. There is simply no substitute for the deliciously unique flavor of fresh cilantro, which I really, really miss! Yes, please, share your salsa verde recipe AND... Have you prepared these cornmeal empanadas with vegetarian substitutes like mashed pinto beans similar to Mexican bean burrito filling? Or any other non- meat, non poultry filling? Also, will you PLEASE do over an English version for your video on stuffed green plantains (EMPANADAS DE PLATANO VERDE Rellenas de pechuga de pollo y queso) hosted on your other channel??? Any suggestions you can provide on suitable vegetarian fillings will be very helpful. I'm researching suitable Latin American / Caribbean finger street foods that can be prepared with economical ingredients locally savailable or at least not hard to find in order to help create sustainable income for disadvantage, formerly abused women. Cornmeal, like wheat and potatoes, is imported and everything is a bit costly but at least 1 bag of cornmeal can go a long no way and can be used to create a snack that is not sold by anyone, anywhere! This video was very helpful. You presentation is pleasant, unruahed but not too slow; you don't chat of topic or too much so that the video becomes longer than necessary or tiresme to watch; and you are decently organized. Appreciate your sharing and commitment. Gracias!
Having an allergy to wheat but a love for empenadas, hand pies, pot stickers, and all things similar. This white corn flour will work. Will cutting in butter make the crust flakey?
These look delicious! I never tried them with chicken, but I will certainly make them. You speak english very well and I love your accent. i can't wait to see what other recipes you have.
Dear Rhode, I have followed your recipe to the letter. However, having difficulty getting the dough just right. Also, when I fried them, they came out extremely greasy, even though the oil was quite hot and they were not crowded when fried...any ideas? Thanks for the great recipe! From Florida, US:)
Por que no habla español, se le oye horrible ese ingles todo chapurriado, si es receta colombiana hágalo en español y luego ya traducción de subtítulos

Iron Tortilla Press…sis…🔥🔥⚔️⚔️🌪🌪

Please recipe of suace🙏🏻❤️
Thank you for showing how to make these beautiful empanadas. But I was wondering can I make the filling ahead? Like at least 1-2 days ahead?
Yes you can! 👍
How to make the green sauce
How can you make your crust crispy and crunchy.
Dear Rhode, I have followed your recipe to the letter. However, having difficulty getting the dough just right. Also, when I fried them, they came out extremely greasy, even though the oil was quite hot and they were not crowded when fried...any ideas? Thanks for the great recipe! From Florida, US:)
Can you show us how to make Pandebono?
How to make green sauce please
Philippines so yummy
Cuánto tiempo para freírlas?
pls show us how to make salsa
Add thinly grated yuca to the dough. That will keep the empanada from absorbing too much oil.
Can I freeze them and frie them went I need
Yes you can!
but Don't let them thaw out
We call it pastelle press.. In Trinidad
Question can I freeze the ampanadas
Of course you can
can you bake it instead of fry ?
Yes you can!
How much cornmeal and how much water did used..did not understand
Hi. She measured 2 cups of cornmeal and the same amount of liquid
2 corn flour and 2 water
2 cups each
Yes. For 2 cups corn meal
2 cups of water
Corn flour not corn meal. Meal is a more course texture ❤
the intro music reminds me of Sanji’s theme LMAO
Green sauce please
I add cheese
Can i add cheese inside it?
Yes but make sure you close the empanada really well. Mozzarella is the best cheest
You can add anything you like
I’m from Colombia and live in Australia but cannot get the right corn flour.
Aw so sorry! If you find “Maseca” corn flour you could use it as well! 👍
If you have a Walmart there , they have it at Walmart love
Did u get 20 with that measurement
A few more than 20 👍
Qué delicia!! 😊
I'm sure Pork and Beef are just as good. But I wonder how it would turn out with a flaky, white fish like Cod. Put a Scandinavian spin on it.
They get $2.50 each at the market for 1 of them!!
Why are you competing with the music, so annoying, I really want to know about your food 🇬🇧🇬🇧
So sorry, thank you for your comment!
I like the recipe, but I don't like the gloves that you're wearing. Just use your clean hand without gloves.Thank you
How to make Colombian empanadas = Don't.
Huh?
Por que no habla español, se le oye horrible ese ingles todo chapurriado, si es receta colombiana hágalo en español y luego ya traducción de subtítulos
What nonsense..
She sounds perfectly fine..
And her explanation... Is excellent..
It seems that she doesn't know us, that this is our second channel and that the Spanish she is demanding we previously published it. Poor soul!
Hablas como los típicos que reprueban la materia de Inglés en su país y luego salen a querer dar clases por el mundo - C.

So what about her english speaking viewers? We want to watch her videos too!
Pretty much everything you need to make THE MOST DELICIOUS empanadas in the World! Do you cool your filling before putting them in the shell?
Yes! It’s much better to cool off the filling before using it! 👍
Cuánto tiempo para freírlas?
hasta que veas que van dorando
