CURRIED CHICKEN TURNOVERS
These samosa-inspired puff-pastry triangles are filled with spiced chicken and peas. Their savory taste is not the only wonderful thing about them. Unbaked, they can be frozen for up to one month, so you can pop a couple in the oven at night for next day's lunch.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring 1 quart water to a boil in a medium pot; add 1 tablespoon salt and the chicken. Reduce heat; simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 12 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a bowl; let cool. Shred chicken with a fork into 2-inch pieces.
- Heat oil in a large low-sided stockpot over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add onion, garlic, and ginger, and cook, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, about 8 minutes. Stir in curry powder, cumin, and flour; cook 1 minute. Add stock, and bring to a boil. Stir in yogurt, tomato paste, and applesauce; boil 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thickened, about 30 minutes.
- Stir in chicken and peas; cook until mixture is thick, about 3 minutes. Stir in cream and 2 teaspoons salt. Let cool.
- Lay pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface; cut each into 4 squares. Spoon 2 tablespoons chicken mixture onto each square, leaving a 1-inch border. Brush edges with egg; fold squares to form triangles. Press edges to seal. (Unbaked turnovers can be frozen, wrapped in plastic and foil, 1 month; thaw before baking.)
- Arrange on baking sheets. Bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with sauce.

I adopted this recipe from the Recipezaar account as I am always on the look out for make ahead recipes. I think these will freeze well and I look forward to trying that. This is the original introduction: "I needed to use up some cooked chicken and also wanted something quick, so, this is what I came up with. It was a hit at my house, I hope it is at yours too!(:" (thanks cbw)
