A staple in South American cuisine, homemade empanadas can be served as a main dish or a side. We keep this simple by focusing on the empanada filling and instead of making the dough from scratch, we achieve flaky empanadas with the help of refrigerated pie crust.
1 cup diced yellow potato
¼ cup water
1 tablespoon neutral oil, such as canola or avocado
½ cup diced white onion
½ cup diced tomato
½ cup sliced scallions
¼ cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 clove garlic, chopped
8 ounces Mexican-style chorizo, casings removed (see Tip)
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
¾ teaspoon salt
1 (14 ounce) package refrigerated pie crusts
Cooking spray
1 dash Hot sauce or salsa for serving
