Prepare the dough like you did for the flour empanadas (page # 40.B) and the stuffing for the crabs the same way you did for the previous recipe. Fry the empanadas in very hot lard and keep them in the lard until they are a little brown. Serve them very hot alone or accompanied with a lettuce salad.

And to take to the table, put them in the oven for a moment, only to heat them up and be careful not to burn them because they will have a bad oder.

Spanish Transcription

When it is cooled, put the pieces into small shells covering them with the following mix with mayonesa: In a little mug put 2 cooked egg yolks. Use a grinder and mix well putting 2 or 3 raw yolks while another person puts oil in little by little, making sure to pour it slowly and not all of a sudden; when it is very hard, put salt and vinegar or lime juice, put this last. Put this to boil for enough time so the mayonesa stays hard and does not become loose; cover the fish with this mixture adorning them with wheels of tomate and chopped lettuce.
