Preparing the Filling

In a pan, heat some oil and add finely chopped onions. Sauté them until they turn golden brown and release a mouthwatering aroma. Add minced beef and cook it until it's brown. Sprinkle some curry powder, turmeric, ground coriander, and salt. Mix everything together and let the flavors blend for a few minutes.

Preparing the Pastry

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until it's about 3mm thick. Using a round cookie cutter, cut out circles that are just the right size for your mini pie tin. Gently press the pastry circles into the tin, making sure they line the bottom and the sides.

Filling and Baking
