Mix water and achiote powder, add to the Masa Harina, salt and garlic powder, mix, the add the water mixture little by little until all the dough is moist and soft, if you see the is to dry add a little water and if it is to soft almost watery add more masa harina.
- Divide the dough in balls, and using a plastic bag cut in half and a big plate, place the ball in the center of the plastic, cover with another piece of plastic and press with the plate to form the tortilla. Add some cheese and ham in one of the sides and them close to form the empanada with the other side of the tortilla.
- Fry until golden brown, both sides of the empanada, about 5 minutes. Place 3 at a time, so the oil don’t get to cold. You can see the difference of color from one cook and the other one not ready. Serve with a side of your favorite salad, sauce or salsa.
