The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

b) Share the Cheddar and chorizo mixture evenly between the centre of each square. Leave a small border of pastry around the mixture.
c) Brush water along the edges of each square, then fold the pastry diagonally to create triangle parcels, enclosing the filling. Seal the edges of each parcel by pressing down with a fork.
a) Using a small, sharp knife, make little slits across the top of the pastry to allow steam to escape. TIP: Brush the pastry with a little milk if you have some.
