Step 1

In a medium heat pot, add 1 tbsp of oil, sauté the onion with the seasonings for 20 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms, cook for 5 minutes. Add the corn and cook for another 5 minutes. Finally, add 1/2 cup of cream. Remove from heat and let it cool down completely.

Step 2

In a bowl, add the flour, salt, mix it and make a volcano shape. Add the melted butter with hot water. Mix everything until you get an even dough.

Step 3

Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and with a rolling pin, stretch the dough until you get a long dough with a thickness of 2mm.

Step 4

With a circular cutter the size of a cup plate, cut out 24 circles and fill them with 1 tbsp of veggie filling (vegetable filling) and a folded Gouda cheese slice in four. Wet the edges of the dough and close the empanadas by pressing the edges with a fork.

Step 5

In a frying pan with oil, heat it up until it reaches 180ºC (test with a small piece of dough, if it floats immediately, it's ready to fry). Fry for 3 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 6

Notes: - You can complement the cheese with oysters or shrimp. - You can replace butter with lard, margarine or oil in the same proportion. - You can bake them at 200ºC for 20 minutes or until golden brown and serve. (Brush with beaten egg). -
