Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef (or lamb)
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped
- 2 sheets Ready-to-use puff pastry sheets, thawed
- 1 Egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 2 teaspoons Vegetable oil (for greasing)
Instructions
In a bowl, combine the ground meat, chopped onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, black pepper, and parsley. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil.
On a clean surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets slightly to make them even. Cut each sheet into 3x3-inch squares.
Place a tablespoon of the meat mixture in the center of each puff pastry square.
Fold the corners of each square toward the center to create a sealed puff. Pinch the edges tightly to prevent the filling from leaking. Repeat for all the squares.
Brush the tops of the puffs lightly with the beaten egg to give them a golden sheen during cooking.
Carefully place the prepared puffs onto the grill. Cook for 8-10 minutes per side, or until the pastry is golden and puffed, and the meat is fully cooked. Use tongs to flip them gently.
Remove the puffs from the grill and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as an appetizer or alongside a dipping sauce of your choice.
