Meanwhile use a bowl as a guide to cut 10cm diameter pastry circles. Place 2 heaped tablespoons of beef mixture on one half of each of the circles. Sprinkle with cheese, fold over the other half of pastry and seal the edges with a fork.
Whisk the egg with a tablespoon of water and brush the tops of the empanadas.
