Ingredients
- 200 grams Medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 Russet potatoes, peeled
- 1.5 teaspoons Curry powder
- 2 Puff pastry sheets, thawed
- 1 Egg, beaten
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Dice the peeled russet potatoes into small chunks and cook until fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and mash until smooth. Let them cool slightly.
Step 3
While the potatoes are cooking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Remove from the skillet, chop them into small pieces, and set aside.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, cooked shrimp, and curry powder. Mix thoroughly and season with a pinch of salt if needed.
Step 5
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets and cut each sheet into 6 squares, making a total of 12. Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of the shrimp and potato mixture into the center of each square.
Step 6
Brush the edges of each puff pastry square with the beaten egg. Fold the squares diagonally to form triangles, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.
Step 7
Place the assembled puffs onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the remaining beaten egg for a golden finish.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and flaky.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
