Stir fry the onions,
the chili and garlic three minutes. Add the beef and stir fry 5 minutes
more. Add the tomato and a few tablespoons of water and salt and pepper
to taste and simmer for half an hour. Allow it to cool down well. Boil
one egg for 10 minutes and slice it. Knead in the meantime flour, butter,
one egg and 4 tablespoons of water well together and leave the dough
for half an hour. Roll it out and cut out circles with a glass. Stir
the raisins and olives through the meat. Put a little of the meat mixture
and a slice of egg on each circle and close it with a little water.
Fold the edges a little. Bake the empanadas 15 minutes at 180 degrees
Celsius.
