  11. Cut each sheet into strips about 3 x 10 inches long and brush on one side only with melted butter.
  12. Put one rounded metal teaspoonful of the mixture near the short edge of the buttery side of the first pastry strip - about 1 inch from the bottom and slightly to the left-hand side.
  13. Fold the bottom right-hand corner of the pastry diagonally over the filling to make a triangle.
  14. Continue folding the pastry at right angles up the whole lenghth of the strip so you end up with a neat little triangular parcel.
  15. Make more little pies in the same way until all the filling is used up.
  16. cook , simply
  17. brush the pies all over with melted butter or oil,
  18. arrange them side by side on baking trays and
  19. bake at 350-375 F (180-190 C) gas mark 4/5 for about 20 minutes, until the pastry is golden and crisp.
  20. It is best to turn the pies over after the first 10 minutes and brush with more butter or oil.
  21. For even crisper results the pies can be deep-fried.
