Step 1
First of all, boil the potatoes and make mashed potatoes. This step is probably the most time-consuming in the entire process of preparing puff pastry boats.

Step 2
Finely chop the meat and slice the onion into half-rings, then place everything together into a preheated skillet. Season with salt and add spices to taste, then fry until cooked through. If the meat has released a lot of juice, leave it for another 5 minutes at the end of cooking to allow the liquid to evaporate.

Step 3
Roll out the pre-thawed puff pastry and divide it into 8–10 equal rectangles. On each boat-shaped piece of dough, make crosswise cuts along the edges, leaving a border uncut. Now add the filling: first place potatoes, then meat. On top, for extra flavor, you can add small pieces of chopped pickled cucumbers.

Step 4
Now, fold the dough from each side one after another so that the cut ends up in the middle of the "boat," and the edge of the dough overlaps onto the opposite side. Pinch the edges together to prevent the filling from escaping during baking. Brush the shaped boats with egg, sprinkle with grated cheese, then place them on a baking sheet (greased with vegetable oil or lined with parchment paper) and put into the preheated oven.

Step 5
The boats bake quite quickly, only 20-25 minutes at 180 degrees.
