In a skillet heat butter, sauté onion, & garlic over med. heat until translucent. Add tomatoes, cardamon, cloves and pepper. Cook about 8 more min. Add h.o.p. & cook until liquid has evaporated.(5 min) Set aside and let cool.(can be refridgerated overnight.)
Preheat oven to 400*. Put 1 TB. of filling in center of dough that has been cut in 4 in. squares. Put shrimp on top. Moisten 2 edges of dough with the glaze mixture and form into triangles. Seal edges with a fork.
Place empanadas on baking sheet lined with parchment. Brush with remaining glaze & bake for 25 min. or until golden brown. Can also be fried.
Transfer to wire rack and cool slightly. Serve warm. After cooking allow to cool and they can be frozen and reheated in the microwave.
I make my dough, however you can buy a dough or even use prepared pie crust dough.
I generally make these once every 3 months and always put some in the freezer.

Next week this time, my dinner will probably be Sukuma Wiki and Ugali, but I won't have internet access in Western Kenya, so I will post it now in advance! I love me some Sukuma Wiki!!!
Last night we were in Shipshewana, IN, and ate at the Blue Gate Restaurant. It was wonderful!!

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths
Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945
"It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves
Thanks, Abi!
