directions

  • Place puff pastry sheets on a paper-lined baking sheet and allow to thaw until pliable (depends on your brand of puff pastry, mine took 5 minutes). Roll out each piece to make it slightly bigger.
  • Cook your frozen mixed veggies according to package directions and drain well.
  • Mix veggies, hummus and spices in a bowl.
  • Place about 2 heaping tbs of the veggie mix on the bottom part of each pastry sheet leaving a space around the edges. Using a brush or your fingers apply some water to the edges of each pastry sheet and fold down the top to make a pocket enclosing the filling.
  • Now spread some yogurt (about 1/4-1/2 tbs) on each pastie as a glaze.
  • Place in the pre-heated oven and bake at 200°C/400°F for 15 minutes or until puffy and brown on top.
  • Enjoy!

  1. These are fantastic! I didn't even get to try one myself. DD had eaten them all by the time I got home from work and she's very discriminating about food. I'll be making this again tomorrow!
