Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 200 grams Mushrooms
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 150 grams Cooked ham
- 150 grams Cheddar cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Clean and finely chop the mushrooms. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil. Add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 6-8 minutes until softened and any moisture has evaporated. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Finely dice the cooked ham and grate the cheddar cheese. Combine the ham, cheese, and cooked mushrooms in a mixing bowl. Stir well to combine.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets if needed, and cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.
Place a heaping tablespoon of the filling mixture onto the center of each pastry square.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to make an egg wash.
Brush the edges of each pastry square with the egg wash, then fold the pastry over into triangles to enclose the filling. Press the edges together tightly with a fork to seal.
Transfer the turnovers to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops of the pastries with the remaining egg wash.
Using a small knife, make a tiny slit or two on the surface of each turnover to allow steam to escape during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the turnovers are golden brown and puffed. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
