Instructies

Prepare the Dough:

Follow the instructions for preparing the Empanada Dough, allowing it to rise.
While the dough rises, heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.
Add thinly sliced bell peppers, cover, and cook until tender.
Transfer to a small bowl.

Prepare the Filling:

Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the thinly sliced pork and veal, cooking and stirring until lightly browned.
Season the meat with salt and pepper.
Pour in ¼ cup of white wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until almost evaporated.
Reduce the heat to medium, then add the cooked bell peppers, thyme, oregano, paprika, and crumbled saffron.
Stir in the remaining ¼ cup of wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid evaporates.
Season the mixture with salt and pepper.

Assemble the Pie:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Divide the risen dough into 2 equal parts and roll each into a rectangle approximately 15 x 10 inches.
Place one rectangle on a greased baking sheet of the same size.
Spread the prepared filling evenly over the dough and cover it with the second dough rectangle.
Roll up the edges and press them to seal well.
Cut several slits in the top crust.
Allow the assembled pie to sit for 20 minutes in a warm place, such as an oven turned off.

Bake and Serve:

Brush the top of the dough with the beaten egg.
Bake the pie for about 20 to 30 minutes or until it turns golden brown.
