Add the cumin, oregano, chile powder, salt, and ground beef. Cook until the meat is no longer pink, but don't let it get too brown. Refrigerate until the next day so that the juice sets Preheat an oven to 400F. To make the crust: Sift the dry ingredients together. Add the liquid ingredients and beat to form a stiff dough. Divide the dough into 20 pieces and roll each into a thin circle. Put a spoonful of the filling on half of the circle and divide the egg slices, the olives and raisins among the 20 Empanadas. Fold over the dough, wet the edge with milk, fold over again to make a border If you like them shiny, paint with glaze before putting them in the oven. Place on a sheet pan and bake until brown. Serve with pebre sauce. Heat Note: This recipe requires advance preparation NOTES : In Chile, Empanadas are baked rather than fried, as they are in other Latin countries. To increase the heat add pebre sauce.
