Empañadas with L'Etivaz PDO

1
Make the shortcrust pastry: Dissolve a little salt in the water. Mix the cubed butter with the flour and add the water to form a ball of dough. Shrink and leave to rest in the fridge for around 1 hour.
2
Making the stuffing : Mix the rebibe and L'Etivaz PDO with the chopped garlic clove, cream, mountain herbs, egg and add white wine to taste... Be careful, the mixture must not be liquid.
3
Roll out the pastry to about 2mm then cut out 13cm diameter rounds using a cookie cutter.
4
Place 1 ball of cheese mass in the centre of the shortcrust pastry rounds and brush the ends of the pastry with egg. Fold the pastry in 2 to form a half-moon and brush with egg yolk.
5
Bake in the oven at 200° for around 10 minutes. Serve on a plate with a nice salad.
