Grease 4 large ovenproof bowls and set aside.

Take a puff pastry.

Roll out the puff pastry onto a lightly floured board.

Using the bowl as a guide, cut the dough into the same shape as the bowl making sure it’s about 1 inch bigger so it will stick to the sides.

Evenly distribute the filling between the bowls and using a pastry brush, brush the sides of the bowls with the egg wash and cover them with the puff pastry making sure to seal the sides against the bowl.

Make a little incision with wither a fork or knife so it doesn’t puff up and explode.

Brush the tops with egg wash and sprinkle them with a little salt and pepper.
