Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a relatively thin layer, approx 1/4in/2mm thick. Trim the edges off the dough and cut it in to squares approx 2 1/2in/6cm square.

Step 5

Put approx 1tsp of jam in the middle of each square and fold over opposite corners. Seal them together by pressing with one finger inside, one over, using a little water to help them seal if needed.
