Ingredients
- 320g sheet ready-rolled puff pastry
- 3-4 tbsp red onion chutney
- 12 pigs in blankets or vegetarian alternative
- 50g cheddar, finely grated
- 1 egg, beaten
Method
Unravel the pastry and cut into 12 squares. Spoon a small dollop (about ½-1 tsp) of red onion chutney over each square, then put a pig in blanket on top so the sausage is in the centre and each end is facing a corner of pastry. Divide the cheddar between the pastry squares.
Bring the corner to the right of the sausage into the centre, then brush that half of the pastry with the beaten egg. Bring the corner to the left of the sausage up and over, and push down to seal. Brush more egg over the pastry. Repeat with the other 11 squares. The uncooked turnovers will keep frozen in an airtight container for three months.
Heat the air-fryer to 200C. Put the turnovers in a single layer in the air-fryer basket and cook for 10-12 mins (or 20-22 mins at 190C from frozen) until the pastry is golden and the sausage is cooked through. (You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your air-fryer.) Serve straightaway, or leave to cool completely. Keep chilled in an airtight container for up to two days.
