Description
"Empanada" is Spanish for the pie filling. While the name can be translated as "cakes of rice with cheese". A dish called empanada is found in the countries of Latin America and the Iberian Peninsula, especially popular in Argentina. This interested me a recipe I found on the Internet under this name, but in the end it turned out that the real empanadas (there are many variants), do the dough. And I will present it like this, "rice" non-classical variant, therefore the kitchen is not indicated. Cheese lovers will like!

Cooking
Here we need the ingredients. Not much...
Wash and put on to cook rice (water, as usual for rice, twice). When the rice is cooked, add a teaspoon of lemon juice and leave the rice to cool.
Meanwhile, we grate cheese grater.
Put in blender (or processor) rice and grind it until smooth. Mass put in a bowl where we will mix the dough and add salt. At this point, I made adjustments to the original recipe added flour. Knead the dough, it should be thick and supple.
Divide the dough into 4 parts, having made of them balls - as mentioned in the original recipe - sized "small egg".
On the surface where You will be working with the dough (I have a cutting Board), put a clean bag (or plastic wrap), sprinkle it with flour and half a bag, put the ball of dough.
Cover the ball the other half of the package and roll out the dough. On half of a tortilla put cheese.
Suscipiam our pie - get something like a large dumpling shape. Don't take clisock thin and large empanadas - the dough may tear (verified by experience)!
Heat in a skillet the oil and fry the patties until Golden brown. By analogy, produced the remaining dough. Here is our "empanadas de Arroz con keso" ready. I poured sour cream and sprinkle remaining cheese. Bon appetit to You and Your family! But defenders (and the defenders) I wish to be strong, patient, honest, noble and generous!
