Chicken Kabab Puffs
This is my husband's and my variation of chicken puffs (similar to pasty but softer crust)
Ingredients:
1 pastry sheet (store bought)
250 gms boneless chicken kababs (see recipe for fried chicken kabab on this blog)
1 onion, sliced
1 tomato, chopped
1 tbsp Ginger-garlic paste (or finely minced)
1 tbsp tomato purée
1 tsp garam masala (curry powder)
Salt to taste
1 egg, beaten
Method:
1. Make the fried chicken kababs (recipe in this blog). Ensure that the chicken pieces are cut very small- about 1/2 inch pieces each.
2. Sauté the onions
3. When the onions start to turn translucent, add ginger-garlic and stir for a minute. Add the tomatoes and tomato purée.
4. Add the garam masala when the tomatoes are cooked through.
5. Add salt and stir for a while.
6. Add little water to bring the mixture together and simmer till the water evaporates. The onions and tomatoes would have reduced to a thick mixture.
7. Add the fried chicken kababs to this mixture and stir for a minute or two.
8. Remove from heat and keep aside
9. Cut the pastry sheet into equal rectangles (roughly about 3x5 inch pieces) or squares
10. Fill half of the pastry sheet with the chicken mixture. Leave a little gap on the side to seal
11. Brush some beaten egg on the side of the pastry sheet and fold the other half over the chicken mixture. Press to bind. The egg acts as a glue to bind the sheet.
12. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper (so that the puffs don't stick to the bottom.)
13. Brush the top of the puffs with beaten egg to give it the beautiful glaze when baked
14. Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees Celsius (fan assisted oven)
15. Bake in pre-heated oven for 15-20 minutes
16. Remove from oven and serve hot.
Hope you enjoy the puffs as much as we did :D
