Notes
- Cool the filling completely: Always let the vegetable mixture cool before placing it on the pastry sheets to prevent the pastry from becoming soggy.
- Roll for more space: Lightly dust with flour and use a rolling pin to gently roll out the pastry squares. This gives you more room to add filling without tearing the dough.
- Seal properly: Lightly moisten the edges with water before sealing to ensure the puffs stay closed while baking.
- Brush for a golden finish: Apply a light coat of oil or egg wash on top for a nice, crisp, golden, and flaky crust.
- Cool on a rack: Transfer the baked puffs to a cooling rack to prevent the bottoms from becoming soggy and to avoid overcooking from residual heat.
