Cut the pastry sheets in half. Roughly take a quarter of the filling and shape it into a log along the centre of each piece of pastry. Roll up to enclose the filling, and cut into 5 or 6 pieces. Place on trays, seam side down. Bake for 25 minutes or until golden.

TIP:

• Brush with milk and sprinkle with sesame seeds for a golden finish.

• To mince your own meat: 400g batches, dice partially frozen meat 10 seconds / Speed 7

• To make your own puff pastry: 150g plain flour, 150g cold butter – diced, 75g chilled water, pinch of salt. Mix 15 seconds / Speed 6. Mix 10 seconds / Speed 2. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll out as you would puff pastry.
