Roll pastry with a pin to seal perforations. Cut puff pastry into four squares. Place strawberry-rhubarb filling in square centres and slowly fold diagonally to make triangles.

Fork-seal turnover edges and place 2 inches apart on baking pans. Brush turnovers with egg wash, cut three little slits, and optionally sprinkle sanding sugar.
