Sausage, Egg and Cheese Turnovers Mindy Fox   From Every Day with Rachael Ray August 2007 FOUR SERVINGS Prep Time: 10 min Cook Time: 45 min 1 tablespoon butter 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion 8 ounces sweet Italian pork sausage, casings removed 1/4 teaspoon salt Pepper 8 large eggs 4 ounces cream cheese, cut into chunks, at room temperature 1 sheet packaged frozen puff pastry, thawed 1. Preheat the oven to 400º. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the butter over medium heat until melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage, salt and a few pinches pepper and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until lightly golden, about 8 minutes. 2. In a large bowl, beat 7 eggs. Add the beaten eggs to the sausage mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked but not dry, about 5 minutes. Transfer the sausage-egg mixture to a wide shallow bowl. Stir in the cream cheese until just combined. Let cool to room temperature. 3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to a 16-inch square. Cut into 4 equal squares. Divide the sausage-egg mixture evenly onto each square, just slightly off center. In a small bowl, beat the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon water. Brush the edges of each pastry square with the egg-water mixture and fold over to form 4 triangles, crimping the edges with the tines of a fork to seal. Brush the turnovers all over the tops and edges with the egg-water mixture. 4. Transfer the turnovers to a baking sheet and bake until golden, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
