- Hey dudes, I'm Hilah and today on Hilah Cooking I'm here with

my friend Nataly Dawn from the band Pomplamoose.

- Pomplamoose. - And we are gonna make

empanadas to celebrate her new album.

- That's right.

I'm really excited about this

and thanks for talking about my album.

That's really nice of you.

- Well, you haven't heard everything to say about it, yet.

- Okay.

(upbeat music)

- So we're gonna start making some empanada dough.

- Mmmm.

- I'm gonna mash this together.

- What are these things?

- This is better and cream cheese.

- I'm gonna hold the bowl so I'm doing a thing.

- That's good, yeah.

- [Nataly] I'm gonna spin it a little bit.

- [Hilah] Shake it up.

That bowl has flour and cornmeal and salt and I like to add a

little cornmeal in for some nice texture.

- Ooh.

- I like texture. - That's great.

It's also corn so it's a

vegetable so you feel like you're--

- That's a good point. - eating a little more veggies.

- Okay, so now you can dump that stuff in here.

- [Nataly] Like altogether? - [Hilah] Let's do half.

That seems good.

And I'm just gonna mix-- - I'm helping.

- this up.

So, you can add the rest now.

- [Nataly] That is looking great.

You know before it just looked like butter and cream cheese and

now it's starting to look like dough.

- Yeah. - So, good work.

Take off my jewels.

It's easier just to get, oh God. - Sorry, just wanna.

(Hilah chuckles)

It's almost the same size.

Now we're married.

- Okay, so you weren't really watching but you can watch

the replay on camera. - Sorry about that.

I was just combining rings.

Look, all of our rings are there now.

Just in case you need my hands at any point.

I just wanted to... - Be ready.

Do you want to touch this dough?

It's kind of nice. - [Nataly] Yeah.

Should I wash, I didn't (groans).

- [Hilah] See, it's like soft.

- [Nataly] Oh, that feels really nice.

- [Hilah] Cool. - [Nataly] I like this.

- [Hilah] And solid but if we tried to roll it out now it'd be

really sticky so I'm gonna put in the fridge for a little while

we make the filling. - Oh, great.

- Okay so our dough is chilled and we just made our

black bean empanada filling.

If you want to see how to make this I'll put the video on

Nataly's channel and I'll link to that in a little card and

down below but you can use like taco filling and I've got a

million taco filling recipes on the channel already.

You can use shredded chicken.

You could just use cheese and

vegetables you can use whatever you want.

- You could put a sock in it.

Doesn't matter.

Great.

- So I'm gonna rolling this out.

- [Nataly] And how thick do you want it to be?

- [Hilah] About a quarter of an inch.

- [Nataly] Great.

- I turned the fridge off so

it's not as cold as it should be.

- Oh. - I just realized that.

- And then you're flipping it.

- I want to add a little more flour.

- [Nataly] And then you're rolling it.

- [Hilah] So it doesn't stick. - [Nataly] Oh.

- Then I'm gonna flip it back over.

Oh Lordy.

- You got it. You got this.

Delicious pockets.

- Hot Pockets. - Hot Pockets.

- Has that song been written already?

If not, we should write it.

- The Hot Pockets song?

- Yeah, that's been taken I guess.

(laughter)

- Okay.

- This is beautiful.

- I've got this big cutter.

If you don't have on like this you can use a smaller one and

make little empanadas.

- How many empanadas does this make?

- Well, if the dough was colder and I was able to roll it out

thinner you'd probably get like six.

- Oh wow.

- But it's not rolling out that thin because we (censored) up.

- [Nataly] Good. It's good to be honest.

- [Hilah] Yeah.

So make sure you don't turn your fridge off before your

refrigerate your dough. - Right.

- And I like to transfer the dough circles first and then

fill 'em just 'cause it seems like it gets a little tricky to

fill, to move them once they're filled.

- [Nataly] Smart.

- You want to grab a couple pieces of cheese.

- Mmmm.

- We're using a Mexican Oaxacan cheese here.

You can use any kind of cheese or you can leave the cheese out

but I don't know why you'd want to do that.

- Ooh.

- Then, you just sort of fold it over.

Sometimes you might need to sort of manipulate it.

- [Nataly] Oh my gosh, that's beautiful.

- [Hilah] I should have let you do this one because I think it's

gonna be easier than this one

but do you want to try to do that one?

- [Nataly] Mhmmm. - Don't mess up.

- Thank you for letting me come into your kitchen.

- You're welcome. I'm glad you're here.

- Nice of you.

- Congratulations on your new album.

- Oh, thanks.

Thanks so much, it feels so good to be done with it,

let me tell you. - Yeah, I bet.

- Just a weight off my shoulders.

- And you're going to be doing some videos to go with it, too?

- Yeah, so many videos. - Yay!

- Music video for every song. - Wow.

How many songs are on it?

- Nine.

- Dude.

- I hope that's true, by the way.

- That's a (laughs).

We'll cut it out.

Approximately nine.

- There are eight songs, there are 10 songs on the album.

Sorry.

Now you have options depending

on how many songs are on the album.

(Hilah laughs) Two.

- Two songs. - Two songs on the album.

- But they're really long. - Really long songs.

- [Hilah] Oh look, we didn't do too bad.

- [Nataly] You did a great job on those.

- Proud of that. - Yeah.

- Now I normally don't like to make videos that are this

unprofessional with dough that's too warm to roll out properly

but I think that-- - With people like this.

- I think that you can just learn something from our mistake

and make sure you refrigerate your dough really well.

These are easy.

Anyone can do it.

- Anyone, even a musician.

- Notoriously flaky. - That's what empanadas have

in common with musicians.

I'm going to apply this cheese carefully.

- [Hilah] Here we go.

I'm gonna scooch this one.

Okay.

- [Nataly] You're really good at that.

- Well this one, this one definitely is not gonna

be our pride and joy. (Nataly laughs)

We're gonna do a little egg wash

on top because it'll make a nice and shiny.

- Oh, that's a great idea.

- And it will cover up all our mistakes.

- That's a great idea.

She's so smart.

- Okay, now I'm also gonna use the fork to sort of.

- [Nataly] (gasps). - [Hilah] Go around the edges.

- [Nataly] Oh my goodness, you're making them pretty.

- [Hilah] Yeah, well, I'm trying.

It's the same thing I do with my face everyday.

Try to make it pretty.

With a fork and some raw eggs.

- Might want to try a different tools.

That might be--

- Have you been to the beauty bar?

- [Nataly] I really want one of those things because

my brushes get all gross.

And look at that.

- Oh, like a silicone one? - Yeah.

- Do you have the natural fiber ones?

- Yeah.

- Yeah, I think that was fine in the pioneer days but like guys

we have plastics now.

So then just to make sure they don't burst open any more,

I'm gonna do a little hole in the top.

That one probably doesn't need

it 'cause it's got holes all in it but...

- Sorry guy.

It's okay, we love you anyways. - You're still gonna be tasty.

- The ugly empanada. - That's a good kids book.

- It is.

- So then we'll put these in the

oven at 375 for probably 15, 20 minutes.

(light music)

- Tada!

- They look good.

- Okay, while they cool, I'm gonna make a dip.

- Okay.

- With mayonnaise because I know

that mayonnaise is your favorite food.

- I love mayonnaise. - I love mayonnaise.

- My second favorite food group.

- [Hilah] So I've got a little minced garlic in there already.

- [Nataly] Ooh, sneaky.

- [Hilah] And I'm gonna do a little bit more orange zest.

- [Nataly] Orange zest. - [Hilah] Mhmmm.

- [Nataly] That looks great.

- Then we're gonna add some orange juice.

- [Nataly] This is beautiful, by the way.

- [Hilah] Thank you.

Oh, don't get the seeds in there.

- [Nataly] No bueno.

- [Hilah] But I do find that oranges with seeds taste better.

Do you agree with me?

- So not eating the seeds but the fact that they contain the

seeds makes them taste better.

- [Hilah] Yeah. - [Nataly] Got it.

- [Hilah] Sweeter. I mean doesn't it smell good?

It smells like super fresh.

- It looks perfect and smells perfect and

everything is perfect.

- [Hilah] And a little bit of lime juice, too.

- [Nataly] Oh my gosh.

- [Hilah] Weee!

Isn't that, don't they say that the smell of oranges is supposed

to make you in a good mood or something?

- It's working.

- Feeling happy? - I feel great.

- Okay, so be sure to check out Nataly's channel, A, for the

filling recipe and also B, for new music videos that are coming

out really soon if they're not already out right now.

- Yeah. This is really fun.

- This is so fun to cook together.

- So fun.

- Should we eat some empanadas now?

- I would love that. - Okay.

Oh yeah, the cheese has cooled off.

It's good.

- That's a nice little cheese flab on there.

- (laughs) Cheese flab.

- Put some dip on that flab.

Sorry, that's disgusting.

- [Hilah] There's a little dip for you.

- [Nataly] Mmmm. - [Hilah] I'll have a little dip.

Mmmm.

What do you think?

- Oh God, I love the orange.

- Yeah, right. - Mhmmm.

I love the orange and the butter and the cheese and the beans.

- Alright, we should probably continue this weird empanada

orgy in private.

Thank you so much for watching.

Bye! - Bye.

We should like, we should do a song together sometime.

- I'd like that.

- That'd be really cool. - Yeah.

- In fact, let's do a song and let's do a music video and let's

have it be about food and let's put it out in like two weeks.

- Sounds like a plan, man.
