- 2 tsp Cumin
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder

- 1 150g/5oz pot Sour Cream
- 2 tbsp to Sriracha
- taco toppings

## Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F.
2. Add oil to a large pan over medium-high heat and add the beef.
3. Break up the beef with a wooden spoon and when it begins to brown, stir in the seasoning.
4. Continue frying until the beef is cooked, then add tomato puree and water.
5. Continue frying for another minute until the water soaks up and the beef is thick and juicy.
6. If you have time, leave the beef to cool until it stops steaming.
7. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
8. Slice one of the pastry sheets into 8 even-sized rectangles, then slice 2 more out of the second sheet.
9. Sprinkle the cheese in 10 mounds in the same shape as the pastry (just a tiny bit smaller) then top with beef.
10. Place the pastry over the top and press around the outside to secure the filling.
11. Brush with egg wash.
12. Bake for 15 minutes, or until deep golden and crispy.
13. During this time, prep the toppings and make the sauce by mixing sriracha with sour cream.
14. The pastry should lift straight off the baking paper when you slide a spatula underneath.
15. If it doesn't, consider baking a little longer to help the crust form, or cut around each pastry, then individually flip them over and remove the paper.
16. Add toppings and enjoy!
