Serves

Hawaiian Hand Pies

Ingredients

100g thinly sliced champagne ham, diced

40g cheddar cheese, grated

40g mozarella cheese, grated

3 sheets (450g) pre-rolled flaky puff pastry

3 slices of Dole sliced pineapple in juice, cut into 5mm chunks

1 egg, whisked

1 tablespoon sesame seeds
 

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C and line 2 baking trays.

2. Using a 10cm cookie cutter, cut pastry into 12 equal circles.  On a floured surface, roll each out until around 14cm in diameter.

3. Place a small amount of cheese, ham and pineapple in the centre  of each pastry circle. Brush the edges with whisked egg and fold  the pastry over to create a semi-circle. Seal edges with the back  of a fork.

4. Using a sharp knife, cut three small holes in the top of each pie. Brush with whisked egg and sprinkle over sesame seeds.

5. Bake for 20 minutes or until puffed up and golden brown.
