Gather @potato{400%g}, @feta cheese{150%g} and @sesame seed{2%tbsp}.

Boil the potatoes until fully tender, then drain and mash smooth. ~{15%minutes}

Fold the crumbled feta, 1 beaten @egg{2} and @black pepper{} into the mash.

Roll out the @puff pastry{500%g} and cut into squares roughly 10 cm across.

Spoon filling onto one half of each square, fold over into a triangle or rectangle, and press the edges firmly with a fork to seal.

Arrange on a lined tray, brush with the remaining beaten egg, and scatter sesame seeds over the top.

Bake at 200°C for 25-28 minutes until deeply golden and puffed. ~{27%minutes}

Cool 5 minutes before eating — the filling holds serious heat. ~{5%minutes}
