Ingredients

• 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets (thawed)
• 300 g Ground pork
• 1 small Carrot (finely grated)
• 1 small Onion (finely diced)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 tbsp Fish sauce
• 1 tsp Soy sauce
• 2 tsp Oyster sauce
• 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
• 0.5 tsp Sugar
• 1 large Egg (beaten for sealing and egg wash)
• 1 tbsp Oil (for sautéing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, and sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the ground pork to the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the grated carrot, fish sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, ground black pepper, and sugar. Cook for another 2 minutes until the mixture is well combined and slightly dry. Remove the pan from heat and allow the filling to cool slightly.

Step 5

Unroll the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares to make a total of 8 squares.

Step 6

Place about 2 tablespoons of the pork filling in the center of each puff pastry square. Be careful not to overfill to avoid spillage.

Step 7

Brush the edges of the pastry square with the beaten egg. Fold the square over to form a triangle, enclosing the filling. Press the edges together firmly and crimp with a fork to seal.

Step 8

Transfer the filled meat pies to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a shiny golden finish.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and crisp.

Step 10

Let the meat pies cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm as a snack or appetizer!
