Ingredients needed for this recipe:
- 1 large ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 package (2 sheets) frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 1 egg, beaten for egg wash
- Coarse sugar for sprinkling (optional)
Directions:
- Prepare the fruit filling: In a medium bowl, combine the diced mango, chopped strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Mix well until the fruit is evenly coated with the sugar and cornstarch. Set aside for about 10 minutes, allowing the fruits to release their natural juices.
- Preheat your oven: While the filling sits, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the puff pastry: Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Using a rolling pin, slightly roll out the dough to increase its area. Cut each sheet into 4 squares, making a total of 8 squares.
- Assemble the turnovers: Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the fruit mixture onto one corner of each square, leaving a small border around the edges. Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg. Fold the dough over the fruit to form a triangle, and press the edges with a fork to seal.
- Apply egg wash: Transfer the turnovers to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops of the turnovers with the remaining beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar, if using.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the turnovers are puffed up and golden brown.
- Cool and serve: Let the turnovers cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your mango-strawberry turnovers warm or at room temperature.
Tips for Perfect Turnovers
Fruit Selection: Make sure the mango is ripe and the strawberries are fresh for the best flavor.
Sealing: Properly sealing the edges of your turnovers will ensure that none of the delicious filling escapes during baking.
Baking Time: Keep an eye on your turnovers as oven temperatures can vary. They should be golden and puffed up when done.
