Puff pastry recipe
It’s interesting that for such a delicious pie with a crispy crust you can even use thin Armenian lavash.
If the housewife has at least a little time to cook and does not need to rush, for example, when guests arrive, then it is better to take regular frozen puff pastry. In addition, canned pink salmon, 2 eggs, a bunch of green onions and sesame seeds will be used.
- The dough must be defrosted in advance by placing it on a floured surface. The top of the sheet is covered with a bag or cling film.
- While the dough is resting after freezing (about 45 minutes), you can start filling. For it, eggs are hard-boiled and then finely chopped along with herbs. The fish is simply mashed with a fork.
- When all the filling ingredients are mixed together, you need to taste them and add salt if necessary. You can use any seasonings and spices.
- The filling is laid out on the first sheet of dough and covered with the second. The edges of the two parts are securely pinched and folded down. All that remains is to transfer the future pie onto a baking sheet covered with baking paper.
