Put another pastry circle over the top and press the edges together with your fingers to fully enclose the filling.4. Make a small hole in the top of each puff so the steam can escape during cooking then glaze with the remaining beaten egg. Put the puffs on the lined baking trays and bake for 20 minutes until golden brown. Meanwhile in a small bowl mix together the tamarind paste chilli and garlic. When the puffs have cooled a little serve with the tamarind dipping sauce and the coriander sprigs scattered over.|30.00 minutes|12|Waitrose
