Pork Empanada

Pork Fritata is what Red Ribbon used to call its defunct pork empanada and it's one of the favorites of mine and my hubby.  It used to be our number 1 empanada in its time seconded by the chicken empanada of Brownies Unlimited-- before it ventured on cupcakes. Let me just give you a quick description...

Red Ribbon is the only nationwide bakeshop that sells a very unique pork empanada. Usually empanada in the market is with yellowish flaky pastry, the one which drops crumbs on the floor as you bite, messing up your mouth and hands. But with the red ribbon, theirs is soft brownish pastry, finely grounded meat pork, a touch of sweet and super moist filling. Delicious in every bite! I wonder how did they cook its empanadas. hhhmmm.  Let's see how close can i get to theirs ---
