Ingredients

• 2 sheets Frozen puff pastry sheets
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 large Onion
• 2 pieces Green chili
• 1 tablespoon Ginger-garlic paste
• 1 teaspoon Curry powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Boil the eggs in a pot of water for about 10 minutes until hard-boiled. Once done, peel the eggs and cut each into halves.

Step 3

While the eggs are boiling, finely chop the onion and green chilies.

Step 4

In a pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent.

Step 5

Add the green chilies and ginger-garlic paste to the onions and sauté for another 2 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in the curry powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Add 2 tablespoons of water and cook the mixture for another 2 minutes, until the spices are well incorporated.

Step 7

Remove the pan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly. Once cooled, stir in the fresh coriander leaves.

Step 8

Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.

Step 9

Take each pastry square, place a piece of boiled egg in the center, and top it with a tablespoon of the spiced onion mixture.

Step 10

Fold the pastry over the egg and onion mixture to form a triangle, rectangle, or envelope shape, sealing the edges by pressing them with a fork.

Step 11

Place the prepared puffs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 12

Brush the tops of the puffs with a little water or milk for a golden finish.

Step 13

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

Step 14

Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Egg Puffs!
