Cherry Turnovers Recipe

Little pastry turnovers filled with fruit are famous during Easter and are very easy to make. The market cooks bake these cherry turnovers to crisp perfection and then pile them up in large earthenware plates, ready to tempt passers-by. Puff pastry is commonly used, but I have had them made with shortcrust pastry and masa tortilla dough, and I have occasionally used filo pastry sheets in my kitchen. However, the hojaldre provides the unmatchable buttery flakiness that somehow seems to suit Easter rejoicing so well! Any reasonably firm and not too juicy fruit can find its way into an empanada: cherries as in the recipe below, peaches and apricots, bananas, pineapple, apples or pears.
