Tips:
- Prepare the dough in advance: You can make the dough up to 3 days ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. This will save you time on the day you want to make the turnovers.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the dough: This will help you get clean, even cuts.
- Don't overfill the turnovers: Too much filling will make them difficult to seal and they may burst open while baking.
- Brush the turnovers with egg wash before baking: This will help them brown beautifully in the oven.
- Serve the turnovers warm: They're best when they're fresh out of the oven, but they can also be served at room temperature.
