Ingredients
For the pastry:
500g block puff pastry
For the filling:
150g currants
50g butter
35g caster sugar
35g brown sugar
1 tsp allspice
1 tbsp lemon juice
For the topping:
1 egg white
25g caster sugar
Method
Pre heat the oven to 180°C.
Melt the butter in a pan, add the currants, sugars and allspice, then cook for 2 minutes.
Allow to cool and chill.
Roll out pastry onto a floured surface to a large rectangle 2mm thick.
Cut out 10cm circles from the pastry and brush with egg white.
Fill each circle with the currant mixture, then seal, flip over, flatten and pop onto a baking sheet.
Brush with egg white, snip two slits in the top of the pastry with scissors to allow air to escape and sprinkle caster sugar.
Bake for 15 minutes.
