These classic New Zealand-style mini meat pies are made by turning leftover Turkish kavurma (meat cooked in fat) into a saucy filling and enclosing it in ready-made puff pastry. They are an economical way to use up leftover meat.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the filling

10 min

Sauté the onion in a pan until soft, then add the leftover kavurma. Cook with the tomato sauce, stock and black pepper for 10 minutes.

2

Cut the pastry

5 min

Cut the ready-made puff pastry into small circles.

3

Fill and seal

10 min

Spoon some filling onto half of the pastry circles. Cover each with a second circle and press the edges firmly with a fork to seal. Brush the tops with egg yolk.

4

Bake

25 min

Bake in an oven preheated to 200°C / 390°F for 25 minutes, until the pies are golden.

Reminder

Press the edges firmly with a fork to seal them, or the filling may leak out in the oven. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten) and egg.

Artan kavurma bulamadığım için kalan tavuk hasağını kullandım, sos yirmi beş dakikalık fırınlamada biraz daha az yoğun oldu ama lezzeti yine de güzeldi, ailem farkı fark etmedi bile.

Tavuk hasağı gerçekten iyi bir alternatif, sosu biraz koyultmak için bir kaşık daha domates sosu ekleyebilirsiniz.
