1 Heat the oil in a frying pan over high heat. Add the onion and reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes or until softened. Add the bacon and cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes or until bacon is crisp. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside to cool.

3 Preheat oven to 200C/180C fan forced. Line 2 large trays with baking paper.

4 Place 1 pastry sheet on a work surface. Cut into 9 even squares. Rotate the pastry squares around to create diamond shapes. Place

1 ½ tbsp of the pork mixture down the middle of each diamond. Fold in the 2 sides and transfer to the prepared trays. Repeat with remaining pastry and mince mixture.
