- 15 g butter
- 350 g lean cooked lamb, minced
- 1 onion, peeled and chopped
- 1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
- 50 g button mushrooms, wiped and sliced
- 2-3 tsp ready-made medium curry paste

Method
Preheat oven to 220°C.
Melt the butter in a pan. Add the remaining filling ingredients. Stir together. Cook for 5 min, covered. Leave to stand.
Roll out the pastry to make 4 rectangles, 13 x 15 cm. Brush the pastry with beaten egg. Divide the filling evenly between the four oblongs, leaving 2.5cm border around the edges of the pastry.
Fold over the pastry, making parcels. Seal and flute edges of the parcels. Place on to a lightly greased baking tray. Make a hole in the centre of each parcel. Brush each with beaten egg. Sprinkle over the cumin seeds.
Place in the oven for 8-10 min, until well risen and golden brown. Serve hot or cold.
