Steps:

• Lay one diagonal pasty sheet on a wooden cutting board, spoon a small amount of either stuffing in the middle of the pastry sheet and then fold the sheet into a smaller triangle, pinching the edges to seal the shell. Take a fork and press the tines down on the finger-sealed edges to secure the hold.
