Ingredients

  • 1 chorizo sausage, chopped
  • 1/2 cup (80g) frozen corn kernels
  • 1/2 x 400g can black beans, rinsed, drained
  • 1/2 cup (150g) creamed corn
  • 1/4 cup (30g) coarsely grated smoked cheddar
  • 2 tbs coarsely chopped coriander
  • 2 sheets Coles Frozen Puff Pastry Ready Rolled, just thawed, quartered
  • 1 Coles Australian Free Range Egg yolk
  • 1 tbs milk
  • Cumin seeds, to serve

Method

STEP 1

Preheat oven to 200°C. Spray a large frying pan with olive oil spray and place over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring, for 2 mins or until golden. Add corn kernels, beans and creamed corn and cook, stirring, for 1 min or until heated through. Remove from heat and stir in the cheddar and coriander. Set aside to cool. 

STEP 2

Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Place pastry on lined tray. Whisk the egg yolk and milk in a small bowl. Spoon the chorizo mixture over half of each pastry quarter. Brush the edge of the pastry with a little egg mixture and fold over the filling to enclose. Use a fork to press the edges to seal. Brush the pastry with the remaining egg mixture and sprinkle with the cumin seeds.

STEP 3

Bake for 25-30 mins or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.
