The pastry was a bit too thick. I think I'll roll it out thinner next time.

These meat puffs were a bit too greasy. I think I'll drain the ground beef more thoroughly next time.

I found the filling to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices and herbs and it was much better.

These meat puffs were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.
