Savory Mushroom Puff

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Prepare the filling: In a pan, melt butter or heat oil over medium heat. Sauté onion until soft and golden.

Add garlic and mushrooms, cooking until moisture evaporates and the mixture turns slightly dry.

Season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Stir in cream cheese if desired for a creamy texture. Let the mixture cool.

Prepare the puff pastry: Roll out the pastry sheet slightly and cut into small squares (about 3×3 inches).

Spoon a small amount of the mushroom filling onto the center of each square.

Fold the pastry over to form triangles or rectangles, sealing the edges with a fork.

Brush the tops with beaten egg for a shiny golden finish.

Bake for 18–20 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.

Serve warm, garnished with chopped parsley.
