Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a small bowl beat 1 egg with 1 teaspoon water. Set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl combine celery, carrots, onion, garlic, parsley, breadcrumbs, parmesan, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Mix well. Add 1 egg and turkey, mix until just combined. Do not overmix. Form 1 1/2" meatballs. In a large skillet over medium-high heat drizzle olive oil and sauté meatballs until golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes.
-
In a 9" pie dish or baking dish spread 1 cup of tomato sauce and arrange meatballs in an even layer. Top with remaining tomato sauce, sprinkle mozzarella and arrange puff pastry pieces in a circular pattern. Less overlap will help the puff pastry rise. Brush lightly with egg wash and bake until pastry is golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.
