Cooking Instructions

In a pan, heat one pound of ground beef in a tablespoon of olive oil on medium heat until beef is fully cooked. Season with garlic salt. Drain meat and set aside.

In the meantime, chop green pepper, onion, and garlic.

In the same pan, heat remaining oil and add tomato paste, vinegar, cumin, chili powder, oregano and salt. Also add in the chopped garlic, onion, and green peppers. Cook until softened (8-10 minutes).

Add the meat back to pan and mix and simmer for another five minutes.

Lay out the pie shells and make as many 4 or 5 inch rounds that you can, using a cookie cutter or a glass. Place filling in the center of each round. Fold in half and seal ends with a fork.

Deep fry or pan fry in oil until golden brown, about a minute on each side.
