Curried Turkey Ham Puffs are gorgeous samosa style puffs that are cooked and eaten straight away. The turkey, celery, onion and curry powder work so well with the puff pastry. This recipe is a match made in heaven. I love to add toasted sesame seeds at the last minute for added crunch. This entire recipe only takes 30 minutes but the results are amazing. A dish full of flavour with heat, warmth, colour and the lovely mayonnaise/curry powder combination. I normally serve these as a main dish but serve these as a snack for hero status.
