Ingredients
 

  • 1 Sheet (1 Sheet) Puff Pastry
  • 6 tbsp (120 g) Ube Halaya Jam room temperature
  • ¼ Cup (59.15 g) Ice Water
  • Oil for frying Vegetable oil, peanut oil, or avocado oil

Instructions
 

  • Cut Puff Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry on a piece of parchment paper. Divide the puff pastry sheet into four equal rectangles. Use a bench scraper or a sharp knife to cut the puff pastry sheet into four rectangles. Try to cut them into the same size.
  • Fill Pastry: Scoop three spoonfuls of ube halaya jam onto the top of each pastry rectangle. Spread the ube, with the back of a spoon, leaving a 1/4th inch boarder around the edges.
  • Fold Puff Pastry: Brush water along the edges of the pastry. Fold the pastry sheet in half like a book, leaving a 1/4th inch of the bottom exposed. Then, fold the exposed pastry sheet on top. Press down with your fingers and seal the edges with a fork. Please refer to the helpful video on my blog. Repeat for the rest of the ube pie pockets.
  • Freeze: Place the ube pies on a tray. Cover and freeze for one hour or overnight.
  • Deep Fry The Pies: Heat oil in a large saucepan or pot to 375℉(190℃). Fry each side of the ube pie for 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat for all the pies.

Notes

  • Puff Pastry Sheets: This recipe calls for store bought puff pastry. However, feel free to make it from scratch using this homemade pop tart dough.
  • Take the ube jam out of the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to making the pies. This makes it easier to spread. 
  • Recipe Filling Variation: Feel free to add macapuno. You can also add cheese to turn these into ube cheese pies. 
  • To Store: To store unfried pies, place in an airtight container and freeze for up to two months. Then, fry as usual. To store fried pies, store them in an airtight container and freeze for up to two months. When you're ready to eat them, defrost at room temperature and bake at 300℉(148℃) for 10 minutes.
