Fish pastries from puff pastry
Description
The pastry is simple and quick to prepare. For making fish turnovers with puff pastry, I recommend using non-yeast pastry that isn't overly flaky—on the package it usually says "with slight rise." For the filling, I used ready-to-eat smoked trout that doesn't require additional cooking. You can also use canned fish (but not oily and without liquid) or boiled fish. Serve with tea or coffee.

Roll out two layers of dough and check with a cutter to see how many pastries you can make. I used star-shaped cutters.

Step 8
Remove the excess dough (by the way, you can use it to make pastries or straws). Firmly seal the edges of the stars so they don't come apart later.
