Hello again.

Well soup alone isn’t enough specially cause kids don’t favor this kind a lot. I’m usually busy Saturdays so needed something easy and quick. I already have some cooked minced meat and frozen peas and carrots, so I decided to bring puff pastry and make them with rice in bundles,, what we call “ouzi sorrar” اوزي صرر.
Well many people usually make a dough at home or use thin ready made pastries but since a while I started using puff pastry for many reasons. First easily handled, second you can cancel butter or ghee from the recipe cause they’re buttered already..plus they’re very crunchy and delicious.

Ingredients and method:
* 1 pack puff pastry.
* 1 cup cooked minced, or cubed meat or cooked boneless chicken. As you desire.
* some toasted almonds or pine nuts.
* 1 cup peas and carrots, some people use only peas. So go with whatever your family like.
* salt, pepper, all spice, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg,, all according to taste.
* 1 cup rice.

* saute peas and carrots with a bit of oil or butter.
* wash rice and add all spices to it.
* add rice to vegetables and mix.
* add water to cover over rice by an inch and leave on high heat till water absorbed then lower heat to minimum till rice is done.
* add the meat and mix.
* leave to cool cause if stuffed while very hot pastries will have holes.
* spread puff pastry over floured tray.
* spread each pastry to bigger squares with a roller.
* put the pastry in a deep dish.
* add some almonds and 2 big spoonfuls of rice mixture then close it to form a ball.
* bake in a medium heated oven for 30-40 minutes.
* roast the surface till golden.
* serve with salad and yoghurt.

Hope you try it…very tasty I assure you.
