what a nice ...recipe. i see this also on the sbs food show with sean ..
its looking so delicious....
It is delicious, the pastry is a bit like water pastry, fragrant and slighty crunchy, my favourite is the one with pumkin, seasame and
watermelon seeds, diced sugar melon
and smoked ham,can be warmed up by grilling on hot charcoal and it explode in your mouth as you bite it.
