Ingredients

  • 250 g ground beef
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 300 g store-bought pastry cut into squares
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 tablespoon sugar
  • 3 teaspoon corn flour
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 3 tablespoon sesame seeds more or less to your liking

Instructions

  • Mix corn flour, water, soy sauce, ginger, sugar, sesame oil in a small bowl. Add the sauce to the beef and onion while stiring the mixture until the sauce is completely absorbed. (Add the sauce little by little so they can be absorbed easily)
  • Cut the pastry into about 8cm squares, place the beef mixture on the pastry squares, cover then crimp the edges of the pastry with a fork to seal it shut, and place on the baking paper. Brush with egg yolk and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  • Preheat the oven to 200C. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.

Notes

  • Corn flour (corn starch) and water mixture are to retain the moisture in the filling.
  • The water might seem excessive but the ground beef can absorb lots of water once you stir the mixture. Stir for about 5 minutes until it becomes a moist and sticky mixture.
