Prepare the empanadas: Use empanada discs that you can find at the supermarket, fill with picadillo and crumbled Oaxaca cheese. Then brush the edge of the empanada with egg using a brush. After that, fold in half, forming a semicircle, and make sure to seal by pressing the edge with a fork. Repeat until you finish the filling. Freeze for 15 minutes. Set aside. Blend the sour cream with the serrano chili, cucumber, garlic, cilantro, and enough salt and pepper. You should obtain a thick sauce. Once the empanadas are frozen, fry in hot vegetable oil over medium-low heat for 8 minutes, drain and serve immediately with a bit of sauce. Enjoy!
