Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 200 grams Cooked shrimp, finely chopped
- 120 grams Cream cheese, softened
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Chives, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 piece Egg, beaten
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets and cut each sheet into 12 equal squares, making a total of 24 squares.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, softened cream cheese, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped chives, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Step 4
Place about a teaspoon of the shrimp mixture onto the center of each square of puff pastry.
Step 5
Brush the edges of the pastry squares with the beaten egg, then fold each square diagonally to form a triangle. Press the edges firmly to seal, using a fork to crimp the edges.
Step 6
Transfer the shrimp puffs to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
Step 7
Brush the tops of the shrimp puffs with the remaining beaten egg for a golden finish.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden and crisp.
