Ingredients

• 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets (thawed)
• 1 cup Cooked corned beef (chopped)
• 1 cup Swiss cheese (shredded)
• 1 cup Sauerkraut (drained and patted dry)
• 4 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing
• 1 unit Egg (large, beaten with 1 tablespoon of water for egg wash)
• 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the puff pastry sheets to smooth them slightly, ensuring they are even in thickness.

Step 3

Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares, giving you a total of 8 squares between the two sheets.

Step 4

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped corned beef, shredded Swiss cheese, and sauerkraut.

Step 5

Place approximately 2 tablespoons of the filling mixture in the center of each puff pastry square.

Step 6

Drizzle about 1/2 tablespoon of Thousand Island dressing over the filling on each square.

Step 7

Brush the edges of each square lightly with the egg wash to ensure the turnovers seal properly.

Step 8

Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges together with your fingers or a fork to seal tightly.

Step 9

Transfer the turnovers to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them out evenly.

Step 10

Brush the tops of the turnovers with the remaining egg wash, and sprinkle with caraway seeds if desired.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the turnovers are puffed and golden brown.

Step 12

Remove the turnovers from the oven and allow them to cool for about 5 minutes on a wire rack before serving.

Step 13

Serve warm with extra Thousand Island dressing on the side for dipping, if desired.
