I use to own deli. I got a recipe for pastelillos from one of my employees and of course I had to change up. They were a hit, we used to make 100 in morning and were usually gone before closing. She begged me to tell her what I had done different. Now she uses my recipe! ;)

How to Make Pastelillos (My Way)

Step-by-Step

In pan fry ground beef and onion and drain. Add rest of ingredients. Set in bowl, line up meat mixture and discs.
I use icecream scoop so these are all even.
I fill each disc and pinch close with fork.
After each are filled I store til ready for deep fryer.
Fry for a min or so til golden brown on each side.
Can be baked or fryed in frying pan of oil.
I serve with sour cream for dipping.
