Tuna Empanaditas

Active time: 1 hr Start to finish: 1 1/2 hr

Don't use water-packed tuna for this recipe — it's too bland for the filling. Tuna packed in olive oil, however, will make for empanaditas that taste genuine. Especially with a glass of Fino Sherry.

Cooks' note:

Empanaditas can be formed (but not baked) 1 week ahead. Freeze in 1 layer in a shallow baking pan, then transfer to sealed plastic bags and keep frozen. Bake frozen empanaditas about 30 minutes.
