Ingredients

Ingredients

  • Coarse salt
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 pound total)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
  • 4 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1 1/2 cups homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 4 1/2 teaspoons tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup applesauce
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas (not thawed)
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 4 standard sheets puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • Cucumber Dipping Sauce

Directions

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.
