Ingredients

  • 4 medium size potatoes
  • 1.5 cup chopped kale
  • 1 brown onion
  • 1 tbsp ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp ground coriander
  • salt & pepper (generous pinch)
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 puff pastry sheets
  • 1/4 cup sesame seeds
  • 1/4 cup poppy seeds

Steps

  1. Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees celsius (fan force).
  2. Place peeled potatoes into a pot of water. Let it come to the boil. Once soft remove from the water.
  3. In a fry pan add diced brown onion. Once caramelised add ground cumin, ground coriander and chopped kale. Add the cooked potatoes and mash the potatoes (use a fork or a potato masher).
  4. Add the salt and pepper and give everything a good mix, letting all the flavours fuse together. Turn off heat and let the mixture cool down.
  5. Line the baking trays with baking paper.
  6. Cut your puff pastry into 4 (making 4 squares). With a tablespoon, place a tablespoon worth of mixture into the centre of each square. Then fold the pastry over to make a triangle shape. Pinch the corners with your finger and then use a fork, gently flattening the edges. Using a fork will leave a nice consistent pattern around all the triangles.
  7. Place the triangles onto the baking trays.
  8. You can add a small amount of water (oil isn’t required) on the tops of each triangle and then add sesame and poppy seed on top.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the triangles are golden brown.
