Ingredients
Marinade:
- 3 tbsp yoghurt
- 500 g chicken
- 2 tbsp oil
- 3 cloves garlic crushed
- 1 inch ginger crushed
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tsp coriander powder chopped
- 1 tsp chilli powder
- 1 tsp chilli flakes
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
Chicken Tikka Mixture:
- 1 can canned tomatoes
- 1 bell pepper green
Extras:
- 2 rolls puff pastry sheet 2 x 320g
- 1 egg for egg wash
Instructions
- Cut the chicken into small bite-sized chunks then add all the marinade ingredients and mix until well combined before setting aside for at least 30 minutes to marinate
- Once marinated, then add the chicken mixture into a hot pan and cook on high heat for 2-3 minutes
- Add the canned tomatoes and bring to a gentle simmer before reducing heat to medium then cover and cook for 10 minutes
- Add the finely chopped green bell pepper then cook for 5 minutes then set aside to cool for at least 30 minutes
- Take the puff pastry sheet and unroll it. Proceed to cut it into 4 rectangles.
- On one half of each rectangle, spoon the chicken tikka mixture, making sure to leave some space around the edges.
- Brush the edges with some beaten egg, then fold the other half of the pastry over the filling, ensuring that the edges are sealed by pressing them together with a fork.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and place the pasties on it.
- Brush the pasties with the remaining beaten egg.
- Put the pasties into the preheated oven and bake 220°C (425°F) gas mark 7 for 10-12 minutes, or until they become golden brown and crispy then flip and bake for a further 10 minutes
- Once they're ready, take the pasties out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- Nutritional facts:
- The provision of nutritional information is done so merely as a courtesy and should not be taken as a guarantee.
- You can also experiment with the filling by adding other ingredients such as diced ham, mushrooms, or peas.
- These pasties can be served either hot or cold, making them an excellent option for picnics or lunchboxes.
- If you have leftover pasties, you can reheat them in the oven at 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4 for 10-15 minutes.
- To prevent the pastry from becoming soggy, make sure to cool the mixture before adding it to the pastry.
- You can also freeze the pasties before baking them. Just place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, freeze them until they become solid, then transfer them to a zip-lock bag and store them in the freezer for up to 2 months. When you're ready to bake, put the frozen pasties on a baking tray and bake them for an additional 5-10 minutes
