Puff pastry is a universal product. It can be used for baking with sweet, salty, vegetable filling. Quick cooking The dishes are the main plus. Puff pastry dishes are suitable for daily nutrition, on festive table.
Most often in recipes it is recommended to use store-bought puff pastry, which is quite affordable even for a budget consumer. Puff pastry can be made with or without yeast. Both types of test are combined with different products, but require various preliminary preparations.
Yeast-free puff pastry is defrosted at room temperature, and is immediately ready to form the product.
Yeast puff pastry is defrosted, shaped into a product and kept warm for some time until it is ready. The dough preparation time is from 15 to 25 minutes, therefore, when using a salty filling that requires long cooking, such as meat, the filling must be pre-heat-treated.
Puff pastry pie with minced meat
Ingredients:
- puff pastry – 1 package or 500 g;
- pork – 300 g;
- lard – 200 g;
- onions – 2 pcs.;
- garlic – 2 cloves;
- salt, pepper - to taste;
- vegetable oil for frying.
Grind the meat and lard into a meat grinder. Can be used ready minced meat, but there are several advantages to making it yourself. Firstly, you can adjust the fat content of minced meat by adding lard. Secondly, there is confidence in the freshness of the prepared product.
Salt and pepper the minced meat, add finely chopped onion. Fry in a frying pan, stirring, for no more than 15 minutes. It is necessary to fry the minced meat with the lid open so that the liquid released during heating evaporates. Fry the minced meat for a short time so as not to lose the taste of the meat when baking it in the pie.
At the end of frying, add finely chopped garlic and turn off the heat under the pan. Form a circle with 2/3 of the previously defrosted dough. Post to round shape with high sides, forming a side of dough 1.5 cm above the edge of the mold. Place the minced meat on the dough, fold the sides over the filling.
Cut the remaining third of the dough into 2 cm strips. Place on top, decorating the pie. It is important that the filling is not completely covered. Bake at 200 degrees for 15-20 minutes. When serving, you can decorate with herbs.
Puff pastry pie with fish filling
Ingredients:

You can put it in a puff pastry pie fish filling from any fish - sea, red, canned. The main requirement is that the fish must be boneless. The proposed recipe is tested for taste and price ratio personal experience– that’s why it’s offered in this version.
Finely chop the pollock fillet. The pieces should be no more than 0.5*0.5 cm. Grinding in a meat grinder is not recommended; the fish will lose its juiciness.
Add finely chopped fish to the fish raw onion, without roasting. Salt and pepper.
Some housewives add fish seasonings; I prefer not to add anything to the filling, but just add a few cloves before cooking, placing them directly on top of the pie.
Mix the resulting minced meat with your hands, pressing lightly to release a little juice. Add sour cream and mix again. The amount of sour cream can be adjusted; the minced meat should be moderately juicy, but without any dripping liquid. If you overdo it with stirring, or were in a hurry with cutting frozen fish, strain the liquid through a colander before adding sour cream.
We draw a fish on a piece of paper, cut it out along the contour, and use it as a stencil. Roll out the dough into a layer half the size of the stencil. Cut out the fish, adding a 2 cm allowance along the edges. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet and place it on top minced fish, without reporting 2 cm to the edge. Place sliced mushrooms on top of the minced meat.
We divide the part of the dough that remains after cutting out the template into small circles, with which we place the pie on top of the filling. We form the tail and head, approximately as shown in the picture. Bake in the oven preheated to 180 degrees for at least 30 minutes.

Puff pastry pie “A-LA Khachapuri”
Ingredients:
- yeast-free puff pastry – 0.5 kg;
- hard cheese – 1 kg;
- egg – 2 pcs.;

Prepare cheese filling. Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. It is necessary to grate it on a coarse grater, because during baking the cheese melts and finely grated pieces spread between the layers of dough, getting lost as the main filling. Add 2 raw eggs to the grated cheese; the filling should be slightly liquid.
You can use any cheese, not necessarily Adyghe one. Supermarkets offer many options, but even the usual "Russian" cheese is fine to prepare this dish. The only difference is whether the filling needs to be salted or not.
Roll out the puff pastry, form a pie or give it another shape (for example, squares). Place minced vegetables inside. Cover the top of the filling or pinch the edges. Brush the pie with beaten egg and place in the oven at 200 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

Add raisins, dried apricots, and nuts to the prepared filling. You can do it separately, you can do it all together, if you wish. The main thing is that the total mass of the added product does not exceed the mass of cottage cheese, ideally in a ratio of 1:2 (1 part nuts: 2 parts cottage cheese).
