Kerala Egg Puffs (Mutta Pupps)

Ingredients

Puff Pastry - 1 sheet (I used Jus-Rol brand, enough to make 12)

Eggs Boiled - 6 - halved

1 Beated egg to egg wash and seat the pastry

Oil - 2-3 tbsp

Onion - 3 large sliced thinly

Green chilli - chopped

Ginger Garlic Paste - 1 tbsp

Salt - to taste

Turmeric powder - 1 tsp

Red chilli powder - 2 tsp

Garam Masala - 2-3 tsp (according to taste)

Method

Preheat the Oven to 170 C.

Heat the oil and saute the onion, ginger garlic paste, green chilli and salt until it is golden brown and cooked.

Add the turmeric powder, chilli powder and garam masala powder and saute until the mixture is like a paste and very aromatic. Check the seasoning.

Divide the Puff pastry sheet into 12 squares/rectangles.

Place a tbsp of the masala mix on the centre of each sheet followed by half of a boiled egg.

Bring the corners of the pastry and pinch them together at the top to seal them.

Give the Puffs and egg wash.

Place in the Oven for 10-15 mins or until the pastry is golden brown.

The pastry doesn't take that long to bake and since the masala mixture is fairly pasty, the puffs will be very crispy and puffed up.

Enjoy with a hot cup of coffee or tea.
