I was inspired to use up my Homemade Puff Pastry this weekend. And I wanted to incorporate a Korean classic, Kimchi and ground beef for the filling. I know you're probably thinking ewww really? Yes, really. And it was actually quite delicious.
The savory, spicy & tangy filling was perfect with the buttery puff pastry.

Ingredients
1/2 lb Grass Fed Ground Beef
1/2 Onion, Diced
1 tbsp Minced Garlic
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp Sesame Oil
1 Cup, Diced Kimchi
1 tbsp Garlic Chile Paste
Salt & Pepper to taste
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 415º degrees. Heat a stainless steel pan on medium/high and add the olive oil and sauté the onions until it softens. Then add the garlic and sauté. Add the ground beef and cook until fully cooked through (you can drain some of the excess fat). Add the kimchi and sesame oil and cook until kimchi softens then finally add the garlic chile paste and sauté.
2. Using your biscuit cutter cut the puff pastry and place on a lined baking sheet. Add a spoonful of the beef & kimchi filling and then place another piece of cut puff pastry on top of the filling.
3. Bake for about 20 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden.
It was the perfect afternoon snack for the hubs and I. Enjoy friends!

Add CommentThese do look like the perfect afternoon snack! I love anything that is small and portable...especially if it involves pastry. Thank you for sharing! I hope you have a lovely Monday!
My husband would eat these up! I've made something similare with wonton skins, ground beef, and veggies. I will have to give this a try. YUM!
So creative, Lisa! Never thought to incorporate puff pastry with Korean cuisine!
I've tried a dumpling before that was filled with ground pork and kimchi and absolutely loved it. So, I know that your ground beef kimchi rounds would most likely taste out of this world.
it's a perfect snack,lisa!
I made homemade puff pastry twice.. Loved it. But then I have never got around it again. Besides what make you doubt anything with puff pastry and meat can go wrong ? Oh never lady. Never. This looks awesome. And you gave me the first push after months to go back to homemade puff pastry.Mmmm...if only
mmm, that looks really yummy Lisa :)
This sounds like a Korean beef wellington :-) This is really creative stuff!
