    Cooking Light

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup finely chopped red potato
    1 cup finely chopped onion
    1 cup beef broth
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp ground cumin
    1/4 tsp ground allspice
    1/4 tsp black pepper
    1/2 lb boneless beef top sirloin, trimmed and diced
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1 tbsp finely chopped cilantro
    1 tbsp cornstarch
    1 tbsp cold water
    36 won ton wrappers

    Recipe



    Combine first 10 ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat; simmer 8 minutes or until potato is done, stirring occasionally. Remove from ehat. Cool.

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place 2 baking sheets in oven for about 10 minutes.

    Drain meat mixture in a colander over a bowl. Discard liquid. Finely chop meat mixture with a knife or place in a food processor, and pulse 2 times or until finely chopped. Combine cornstarch and water, stirring with a whisk.

    Working with one won ton wrapper at a time (cover the remaining won ton wrappers with a damp towel to keep them from drying), spoon 1 tbsp beef mixture into center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges of each wrapper with the cornstarch mixture. Bring 2 opposite corners together. Pinch the points to seal, forming a triangle. Place filled wrapper on a wire rack. Repeat the procedure with the remaining beef mixture, won ton wrappers, and cornstarch mixture.

    Remove the baking sheets from the oven; coat with cooking spray. Arrange the emapanadas in a single layer on baking sheets. Coat the empanadas with cooking spray. Bake at 400 degrees for 8 minutes or until golden, turning once.
