Ingredients
  

  • 5 sheets Puff pastry, thawed
  • 3.5 oz Sucuk (Turkish sausage), diced
  • 3 pieces Hot dog sausages, sliced
  • ½ cup Sweet corn
  • 1 medium Green bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1 medium Red pepper, finely diced
  • 1.5 cups Shredded kashar cheese (or mozzarella)
  • 1 large Egg yolk (for brushing edges)
For the Quick Pizza Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Tomato paste
  • 2-3 tbsp Water
  • 1 tsp Dried oregano

Equipment

  • Baking Sheet & Parchment Paper: Essential for a mess-free bake and easy cleanup.
  • Pastry Brush: To evenly spread your sauce or a light egg wash on the edges for extra shine.
  • Fork: For pricking the dough to ensure the perfect crust shape.
  • Pizza Cutter or Sharp Knife: To slice your puff pastry sheets into perfect mini squares.

Method
 

  1. Cut each thawed puff pastry sheet in half to create two rectangles (or squares, depending on your brand). Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
    Slicing thawed puff pastry sheets into equal rectangular pieces for mini pizzas.
  2. Lightly brush the edges of each pastry piece with beaten egg yolk. This will give your "pizzas" a beautiful golden shine.

  3. In a small bowl, mix the tomato paste, water, and dried oregano until smooth. Spread a thin layer of this sauce in the center of each pastry, leaving the egg-washed edges clear.

  6. Place in a preheated oven at 200°C (390°F). Bake until the pastry edges have puffed up and turned a deep golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly charred (usually 18-22 minutes).

Notes

For extra flaky layers, keep the puff pastry cold until baking — if it becomes too soft, chill it in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes before putting it in the oven.
