Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the puff pastry sheet if needed to even out thickness. Ensure it is about 3-4 mm thick.
Cut the puff pastry sheet into 4 equal squares.
Place 1 tablespoon of chutney in the center of each square and spread it out slightly, avoiding the edges.
Sprinkle about 35-40 grams of grated cheddar cheese on top of the chutney in each square.
Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle. Press the edges firmly with your fingers or a fork to seal and prevent leakage during baking.
Brush the tops of each turnover with the beaten egg to give them a golden finish when baked.
Transfer the turnovers to the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the turnovers are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
