SHAMROCK EMPANADAS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the horseradish herb sauce: In a medium bowl, stir together the horseradish, mayonnaise, sour cream, chives, parsley, apple cider vinegar, and salt. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
• Make the spicy mustard sauce: In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, spicy brown mustard, apple cider vinegar, and honey. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
• Make the empanadas: Heat the canola oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
• In a 4-quart food processor, combine the corned beef, sauerkraut, carrots, cabbage, parsley, pepper, coriander, mustard seeds, ground mustard, and 2 teaspoons salt. Pulse for 30 seconds, until well combined and everything is finely ground. Add the potatoes and pulse for 10-15 seconds more, until the potatoes are very finely chopped but still visible.
• Transfer the filling to a sieve set over a bowl and use a rubber spatula to press out any excess liquid.
• In a small bowl, beat together the eggs and water.
• Lay 2 empanada dough rounds on a clean surface and brush all over with egg wash. Set a 3-inch clover cookie cutter in the center of one of the dough rounds and fill with 1-1½ teaspoons of the filling, mounding in the center of the mold. Remove the cutter and cover the filling with the other dough round, egg wash-side down. Press down firmly with the cookie cutter to seal the filling inside. Using your fingers or a fork, press the edges of the empanada dough together to seal, discarding the dough scraps. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
• Working in batches of 3-4, gently lower the empanadas into the hot oil and fry for 7-10 minutes, flipping once, until golden brown on both sides. Use a spider to transfer the empanadas to the wire rack and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
• Serve the empanadas hot with the horseradish herb sauce and spicy mustard sauce for dipping.
• Enjoy!
