Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the ground beef, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks, until browned, about 7 minutes.
Stir in the grated carrot and peas, cooking for an additional 3 minutes.
Season the beef mixture with salt, pepper, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix thoroughly and let cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in chopped parsley.
Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then stir in shredded cheddar cheese.
Unroll the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 squares.
Place a generous spoonful of the meat mixture in the center of each pastry square.
Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg and fold into triangles, pressing the edges to seal. You can crimp the edges with a fork for a decorative touch.
Place the pastries on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with more beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
Allow pastries to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your protein-packed savory treat!
