- Meanwhile roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface to approximately 38cm x 38cm. Cut into six by cutting in half lengthways and then cut each half across into 3. Divide the mince between the six pieces of pastry, brush the edges with a little beaten egg and fold the corners over to seal, pressing with a fork to seal tightly.
