Strawberry Turnovers

Strawberry Turnovers 



As much as I love strawberries, I hate the super sour ones (obvious when strawberries are not in season anymore). My girl loves strawberries but since these were too sour for both of us, I was thinking of ways to use up the strawberries.

These turnovers have been a ‘thing’ of the past, as we have so many innovative recipes around, that we forget to cherish the golden ones. These turnovers are so easy to make and so scrumptious too! I gave it my touch by adding in pieces of Kinder Chocolate in a couple of them and some had Cream cheese. I loveeed the chocolate ones. My hubsy loved both, though my girl complained that I could have added a couple more pieces in each turnover. 😄 

Let’s make these easy yet delicious treats right away! 



Ingredients:



  • 1 cup Fresh Strawberries, chopped
  • 1 1/2 tsp Corn Flour
  • 2-3 tbsp Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Essence 
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Juice
  • Lemon Zest (optional)
  • Salt, a pinch
  • 7-8 Frozen Puff pastry sheets
  • Kinder Chocolate Bars (optional)
  • Cream cheese spread/ Kiri Cheese (optional)
  • 1 egg, for egg wash/ mayonnaise *
  • Vanilla Ice cream to serve

Instructions:

  1. In a sauce pan, add in your chopped strawberries, sugar, corn flour, and lemon juice. 
  2. Cook on low for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add in lemon zest, vanilla Essence and a pinch of salt.
  4. Spread the strawberry compote on each puff pastry square and add in kinder chocolate/ cream cheese cubes and overlap to shape into a triangle and seal the ends using the help of a fork and make a small slit on the top of the puff so that air doesn’t get trapped and in turn the filling oozes out from the sides ( I forgot to do that).**

  5. Finally, give it an egg wash/ apply Mayo and bake in a preheated oven at 200 deg C for 25-30 minutes or until golden and puffed.


  6. Enjoy warm with a dollop of ice cream and fresh strawberries.





*Mayonnaise is a great alternative for egg wash, that has minimal egg smell. 
** I forgot to give a slit on the top, so that the filling doesn’t ooze out from the sides when baking.
