🔥 Step-by-Step Guide to Making Golden Savory Puff Pastry with Minced Meat and Cheese

Step 1: Prepare the Filling

1️⃣ Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes translucent.

2️⃣ Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

3️⃣ Add the minced meat to the pan and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until it’s browned and fully cooked. This will take about 5-7 minutes.

4️⃣ Once the meat is browned, add the tomato paste and stir to incorporate. Then, pour in the broth (or water) to deglaze the pan and create a nice, slightly saucy filling. Let it simmer for 3-4 minutes.

5️⃣ Season the mixture with salt, pepper, paprika, oregano, and cumin. Stir well, and then remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.

6️⃣ Once the meat mixture has cooled, stir in the shredded cheese until it’s well combined. The cheese will melt slightly, making the filling even more delicious and cohesive.
