  • Take thawed puff pastry, cut into 6 squares. ( Puff pastry comes with two sheets will equal to 12 pieces total)
  • Take one square, place a table spoon of filling inside. fold it together to form a triangle and pinch the dough to seal tight.
  • Most importantly place parchment paper on a baking sheet therefor you don't want the puff pastry to stick to the sheet.
  • Place samsa on top keeping them one inch apart.
  • To make the egg wash, using a fork beat one egg with table spoon of water.
  • Brush each samsa with egg wash. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
