Prepare the Edamame Filling

In a bowl, combine cooked edamame, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and chopped green onions. Mix well to ensure all the flavors are evenly distributed.

2

Make the Empanada Dough

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add cold water gradually and mix until the dough comes together. Knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth.

3

Fill and Fold the Empanadas

Roll out the empanada dough into small circles. Place a spoonful of the edamame filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over the filling and seal the edges by pressing with a fork. Repeat until all the dough and filling are used.

4

Fry the Empanadas

Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place a few empanadas in the hot oil and fry for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining empanadas.

5
