Start by mixing 1 egg with 25 grams of oil until well combined.

Knead the dough on a clean countertop until smooth and soft.

Cover the dough with a bowl and let it rest.

Prepare the puff pastry using shortening, which is 100% fat and doesn't melt at room temperature.

Smooth the shortening and create a block for the puff pastry.

Roll out the dough and fold it to create layers, performing a three-fold technique.

Let the dough rest for 10 minutes after each fold.

Cut the puff pastry into circles for the vol au vent.

Make a hole in the center of half the circles for filling.

Apply egg wash on the edges of the pastry circles.

Bake the pastry at 200°C for 45-50 minutes until golden and flaky.

Prepare the chicken filling by mixing half a cup of chicken with salt, chili powder, ginger garlic paste, and fresh cream.

Cook the chicken mixture until fully cooked and delicious.

Fill the baked puff pastry with the chicken mixture and a bit of cheese.

Melt the cheese slightly on top before serving.
