Ingredients

3/4 pounds of Chinese BBQ pork char siu (store bought or homemade), diced
1 yellow onion diced
2 tablespoons cooking oil
397 g of prepared puff pastry dough
1 egg for brushing
2 tbsp sesame seeds optional

Sauce

1/2 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons water
1 tsp oyster sauce optional

Instructions

Mix the hoisin sauce, sugar, water and oyster sauce (if using). Set aside.
Heat a large skillet with 2 tbsp of cooking oil. Sauté the diced yellow onion until slightly browned. Add the pork and stir fry for 2-3 minutes.
Add the sauce and simmer on low heat for 2-3 minutes. The pork should be moist, but not too wet.
Roll out the puff pastry. Cut into 16 rectangles, about 2.5″ by 3.5″ each.
Place a tablespoon of the pork mixture onto the pastry. Roll, pressing the edges flat to form a pillow.
Use a fork to press down and close the edges, while poking fork holes on the top of each puff to let out steam while baking.
Place the pastry on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush the egg wash mixture on each puff and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool and enjoy.
