Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 Small onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cups Mashed potatoes
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 Frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
- 1 Egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the salt, black pepper, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to incorporate the flavors. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir in the cooked beef mixture until well combined.
Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares, making a total of 8 squares.
Place a generous spoonful of the beef and potato filling in the center of each pastry square.
Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle. Press the edges with a fork to seal them securely.
Brush the tops of the puffs with the beaten egg to give them a golden, glossy finish.
Place the puffs on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Let the puffs cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
