Chocolate Strawberry Turnovers Recipes Recipe For Shrimp

CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY TURNOVERS

Steps:

• Thaw the puff pastry sheet for 40 minutes or until its soft enough to work with.
• Preheat your oven to 425'F.
• Melt the chocolate in a double boiler. Make sure the water doesn't touch the top pot of the double boiler, it can scorch the chocolate. Stir the butter and citrus zest into the chocolate. The lime I used gives it such a neat flavor. Set aside.
• Lightly coat a large baking tray with cooking spray.
• Beat the egg until it's nice and fluffy and a light yellow shade.
• Roll out the pastry so its square. Cut the puff pastry into 4 equal squares and brush 1/2 of each square around the edges with the egg.
• Cut up your strawberries and mound them in the middle of each pastry square.
• Add some of the chocolate on top of each square of strawberries and fold the corners together to form a triangle. Press the edges together gently to seal making sure you don't leave any holes so the goodies won't leak out.
• Cut a slit on top of the triangle to let the steam out. Brush with the egg mixture and sprinkle with the sugar.
• Place baking sheet on the center rack in the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until the pastry is a golden shade on top.
• When done remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes on the tray then transfer over to a wire rack and cool further.
• Serve warm with ice cream, whipped cream, icing sugar if you want more sweetness or drizzle them with more chocolate.
• Bon Appetit!

BERRY BERRY TURNOVERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a medium pot, combine the first 6 ingredients and mix well. Cook on medium heat until tender and syrupy; about 10 minutes. Allow to cool in refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle on a well-floured surface and cut into 8 squares. Place onto a sheet tray lined with parchment paper. Brush the edges of the square with the beaten egg. Place about 2 1/2 tablespoons of filling in the center of the square, leaving 1-inch on all sides clear. Repeat until all the puff pastry is used. Fold the turnover into a triangle and using a fork, crimp along the edges making sure to enclose all the filling in the pastry. Brush egg wash on top of each triangle.
• Bake the turnovers until puffy and golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

CURRIED SHRIMP TURNOVERS

Steps:

• Using a round pastry cutter, cut the pastry into 2-inch rounds, placing each round on a waxed paper lined cookie sheet. Roll the remaining scrap into a ball and roll out, using a rolling pin, into a 1/4-inch thick sheet and continue to cut rounds of puff pastry until you've used it all up. Refrigerate the rounds until the filling is ready.
• Heat a saute pan over medium heat for 1 minute. Add the butter, and when it begins to foam, add the diced onion. Cook the onion until it is translucent, add the carrot and apple and saute for 2 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook for 2 minutes, then sprinkle with curry powder and stir to combine well. Season with salt and pepper, remove from heat, and spoon the mixture onto a flat pan (such as a cookie sheet) and cool for several minutes. Put shrimp in refrigerator and chill throughly.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Lightly brush a round of pastry with some of the egg wash. Place 1 teaspoon of the shrimp filling in the center of the pastry and fold the dough in half to encase the filling and create a dumpling. Continue to fill the pastry rounds in this way until all of the filling and pastry has been used up. Place the finished turnovers on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Brush the tops of the turnovers with the remaining egg wash and bake for 12 to 15 minutes just before you are ready to serve them. They may be held, unbaked and refrigerated, for up to 48 hours for later use. Serve hot.
