Pro Tips for the Best Results

Flip for Even Cooking

Turning once ensures even browning and heat throughout.

Use a Small Slit to Prevent Bursting

This helps release steam and prevents the filling from leaking out.

Spray with Oil for a Golden Shell

Optional—but adds a griddle-like finish.

Let It Rest

Gives the filling time to settle and makes it safer to bite into.
