LITTLE PIES (EMPADINHAS)
Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- Cut the butter into the flour mixed with the salt until the butter is the size of peas. Add one egg at a time until the dough forms a consistency that you can flatten in your flowered hand. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest 2 hours. This dough should not be handled too much. Roll into balls and flatten and place in little 1-inch ungreased pie tins. Fill with beef, shrimp, chicken or cheese filling (see below). Make a small ball of dough, flatten and place on top of the little pie. Squeeze around the edges to seal. Beat an egg yolk and paint the top of the little pies. Bake in a hot oven-400 degrees for 20 minutes and then reduce heat and bake at 350 degrees for 30 more minutes and serve immediately. These pies may be made in any size pans. The small pies are made for appetizers, the larger pies for a main course cut into serving pieces. If it is a large pie, you could call it an empadão. The individual meal size pies are called empada. The baking time will vary according to the pan size.

Steps:
- Make the dough.
- Place the flour in a large mixing bowl and make a well in the center.
- Place the butter, shortening, eggs, salt, and 1 cup water in the well.
- Using one hand to mix, squeeze these ingredients through your fingers to make a paste.
- Gradually work in the flour, squeezing the dough between your fingers to mix it.
- Add water as necessary: the dough should be quite soft.
- Let the dough rest for 30 minutes.
- Prepare the filling.
- Peel and devein the shrimp (my favorite yucky part...).
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan.
- Sauté the onion and garlic over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until soft but not brown.
- Add the shrimp, bay leaf, tomato paste, salt, and pepper, plus water to cover.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the shrimp is cooked.
- Strain the shrimp, reserving the broth.
- Finely chop the shrimp by hand or in the food processor.
- Stir in the flour, peas, and olives.
- Stir in 3-4 tablespoons of the reserved broth: the filling should be moist but not runny.
- Add enough cayenne to give the shrimp mixture a little bite.
- Pinch off cherry-sized pieces of dough and use them to line the tartlet molds.
- Push the dough in with your thumb.
- The dough should just reach over the top of the mold.
- Place a spoonful of filling in each crust.
- Roll out the remaining dough and cut out tops for the empadinhas.
- Try to capture an air bubble when you place the top over the filling: this is what makes the pie light.
- Seal the tartlets by pinching together the top and bottom crust.
- Note: the empadinhas can be prepared ahead to this stage and frozen.
- Preheat the oven to 375° F.
- Brush the tops of the empadinhas with egg glaze.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Unmold and serve.
- If you're lazy like me, try this big pie version, called empadão: make the filling and use Pillsbury pie crusts, one for the bottom and one for the top.
- Fantastic dinner stuff!
- To make chicken empadinhas-------------.
- Cook the chicken and prepare the broth.
- Place the chicken in a small saucepan with the garlic, onion, bay leaf and water to cover.

LITTLE PIES- SHRIMP FILLING
Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- Use shrimp that has been cleaned. Heat the frying pan. Add the cooking oil and stir-fry the shrimp, add the finely chopped onion and season with garlic, salt and pepper. Add the chopped tomatoes without seeds or skin. Add a little water and let simmer. Whip the egg yolks, add the milk and flour in a blender. Stir into the shrimp mixture. Continue to stir so it will not scorch. When thick, add the chopped palmitos, grated boiled eggs, chopped green olives and chopped parsley. Let cool. Mixture should be cold and thick before putting into the little pastry shells. NOTE: The same shrimp filling can be used for some of the other recipes in this section. If the filling is for pastéis, it will have to be a little thicker. If it is for empadinhas or pie, it can be less thick. For rocambole use a thicker filling. Less thick if you just want to serve it over rice.
