How to make strawberry turnovers from scratch?
Step1: Make the strawberry filling
Use fresh strawberries to make the filling. Frozen strawberries can be used too but fresh ones make the filling better.Slice the strawberries and add to the pan, add butter, salt, sugar cornstarch, and sugar. (I added more sugar as my strawberries were super tart)
Let the strawberries cook till the strawberry filling is thick. Use a food masher to smash the berries.

How to thicken the strawberry filling?
Adding cornstarch is important as the filling usually turns out runny. Strawberry will turn juicy as they cook and filling will turn liquidy, so adding cornstarch is important.
Can I store these strawberry cheesecake puffs?
These turnovers taste best when they are fresh and warm. If you store them then they will turn soggy. Reheating them in the microwave won't make them crisp and flaky again.
You can try baking them again in the oven and see if they turn crisp. (I haven't tried as these vanished in no time)
