Ingredients You Need for Turkish Rice Pilaf-Stuffed Hand Pies [Vegan]
How to Prepare Turkish Rice Pilaf-Stuffed Hand Pies [Vegan]
- Make sure to take the puff pastry out of the freezer to defrost.
- Then, in a large saucepan, over low-medium heat, add the olive oil, garlic, and sweet onion. Cook for 5 minutes.
- Next, stir the (rinsed) brown rice, red pepper flakes, oregano, cardamom, and cumin.
- Add the mushroom or vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, then simmer until rice is al dente (about 20-30 minutes).
- When rice is cooked, fold in the toasted pine nuts and crushes almonds.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Cut each rolled puff pastry into quarters (this should give you 8 squares).
- Add 2 big spoonfuls of the rice pilaf to each square in the puff pastry.
- Pinch the 4 corners up to the middle, which will create 4 new corners that you can pinch up to the middle as well. Twist the top to seal the corners.
- Place onto a greased baking sheet. Cook for 25-30 minutes or until hand pies are golden brown.
Notes
- You can also use filo or phyllo, a much thinner dough compared to the puff pastry. - These taste amazing when dipped in mushroom gravy.
