Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Lean ground beef
- 1 large Onion
- 2 medium Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (low sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 400 grams Ready-made puff pastry (low sodium)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks.
Mix in the black pepper, low sodium Worcestershire sauce, and chopped fresh parsley. Cook for another 2 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and let the beef mixture cool.
Unroll the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface and cut it into squares, approximately 10cm x 10cm in size.
Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each pastry square.
Fold the pastry over to create a triangle, sealing the edges by pressing them with a fork.
Beat the egg with the tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush this over the top of each pastry.
Place the pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your low sodium beef pastry as a delightful snack or main dish!
