Savory Puff Pastry with Minced Meat and Cheese Directions:
-
Prepare the Filling:
- In a pan, spray with olive oil and sauté the chopped onion until soft and golden.
- Add the lean ground turkey or chicken to the pan, season with salt, pepper, and dried basil, and cook until browned.
- Once the meat is cooked, stir in the chopped boiled eggs, reduced-fat mozzarella cheese, and chopped parsley. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
-
Assemble the Puff Pastry:
- Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F).
- Roll out the light puff pastry on a floured surface and cut it into the desired shape (squares, rectangles, or circles).
- Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each piece of pastry.
- Fold the pastry over the filling to enclose it, pressing the edges together to seal.
- Brush the top of each pastry with egg yolk for a golden finish.
-
Bake:
- Place the filled pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 30 minutes, or until golden and puffed.
-
Prepare the Yogurt Dip:
- In a small bowl, mix the chopped pickled cucumbers, minced garlic, and non-fat Greek yogurt. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well.
-
Serve:
- Serve the warm puff pastries with the yogurt dip on the side.
