How to make pastizzis - Part 4 - Preparing the pastizzi for baking

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until thin.

Cut the pastry into circles, about 4 inches in diameter.

In a bowl, mix ricotta cheese, crumbled feta cheese, chopped parsley, egg, black pepper, and salt until well combined.

Place a spoonful of the cheese mixture in the center of each pastry circle.

Fold the pastry over to create a half-moon shape and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.

Brush the tops of the pastizzi with water and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Arrange the pastizzi on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
