Directions

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add pork, onion, garlic, ginger and spices. Cook and stir, breaking up pork, until onion is tender and pork is no longer pink, about 8 minutes. Add apple, water and salt. Reduce heat; cover and simmer about 20 minutes. Stir and mash apple into mixture. Cool completely. On a lightly floured board, roll out one piece of puff pastry to a 12″/30 cm square. Trim edges. Cut into 16 3″/7.2 cm squares. Place spoonful of filling on half of each square. Fold over to make triangles. Moisten edges with water and seal. Crimp edges with a fork. Repeat with remaining piece of puff pastry. Brush turnovers lightly with beaten egg; pierce each with a fork. Bake on ungreased cookie sheets at 400ºF (200ºC) until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

Note: Always cook ground pork to well done.
