While growing up in India,
we used to eat puff pastries quite often but never made them at home, always
used to get them from the bakery. We never even thought of making them at home,
but after coming here, I saw these puff pastry sheets, which made our life easier.
My friend Sonia makes the best puff pastries, and I am very thankful to her
that she agreed to share the recipe on our blog. Here is the recipe of puff
pastry with potato stuffing, but you can try different versions too like spinach cream or paneer peas stuffing. They all taste great. You get Pillsbury puff pastry sheets
frozen. Whenever you want to use the sheets, keep them at room temperature for
40 -45 minutes. So you can work with them easily.
Serves: 18
Prep time: 20 Min; Cook time: 15 -20 min

3 Medium sized Potatoes boiled.
1 Small chopped Onion.
1 Tsp Grated Ginger.
1/2 Tsp Turmeric
1 Tsp Oil
1 Tsp Oil

1 box of Pillsbury puff pastry sheets (2 sheets- one makes 9
puff pastries)

your filling is ready.
6) Spread one puff pastry sheet and cut it in 9 equal
squares.
7) Take one square in your hand, put some filling in it
and then approximate the edges to make a triangle. Seal with water.
8) Make 18 puff pastries from 2 sheets and place them in
tray.
9) You can brush the beaten egg on pastries at this point
for glaze(Optional).
10) Put
the tray in pre-heated oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Turn the pastries halfway at around 8-10 min.

puff pastries are ready to serve. Serve with ketchup or coriander chutney.
