2. 2

To assemble

1. 4
   Roll out the dough on a work surface and cut into into squares of about 12 cm.

   Knife
2. 5
   Place a spoonful of cooled filling in the center of each piece, fold diagonally and seal the edges well with a fork.

   💡Seal well and press with a fork all along the edges, and don't overfill: a pastry that opens in the oven loses its filling, and in the fryer it fills with oil.
3. 6
   Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, brush with beaten egg.

4. 7
   Bake in an oven preheated to 200°C (390°F) 18–22 minutes, until the pastries are puffed and golden underneath too.
