1/2 tsp. red chili powder or cayenne pepper
1/4 cup plain Balkan-style yogurt

2 Tbsp. chopped fresh coriander leaves (cilantro)

Make It!

HEAT oil in large skillet on high heat. Add cumin seed; cook and stir 30 sec. Add meat and seasonings; cook and stir 3 min. or until meat is lightly browned. Add yogurt and dressing; cook 5 min., stirring constantly. Drain. Spoon into large bowl. Add cheese and coriander; mix lightly. Refrigerate 15 min.
MEANWHILE, heat oven to 400ºF. Roll out 1 pastry block to 9-inch square on lightly floured surface; cut into 3 (3-inch-wide) strips. Cut each strip into 3 (3-inch) squares. Dust squares lightly with flour; stack on plate. Repeat with remaining pastry block.
SPOON about 1-1/2 Tbsp. meat mixture onto centre of each pastry square; fold diagonally in half. Firmly press edges together to seal. Place on baking sheet; brush with egg.
BAKE 15 to 18 min. or until crisp and golden brown.
