Préparation

   In a small bowl, using your fingers, combine the flour and butterAmount1/2 cupIngredient(113 g) butter, cubed until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the water, while stirring with a fork, until a dough forms. Divide the dough into two even-sized balls, cover, and refrigerate.

   In a large pan over medium-high heat, warm the oil. Add the onion and garlic, cooking for 5-7 minutes until the onions are translucent. Add the beef and cook for 5 minutes, until no longer pink. Add the tomato paste, oregano, cumin, chili powderAmount1/2 tspIngredientchili powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and salsa, cooking for another 5 minutes.
