7. in a small bowl mix egg and 1 tablespoon water.
8. brush the edges of each piece of dough with egg wash, fold empty half over and seal edges. make sure to seal edges tightly, you don”™t want the cheese or sauce to come out of the sides during cooking, i like to actually roll the edges up a bit to ensure this doesn”™t happen.
brush tops with more egg wash and sprinkle with a little bit of parmesan cheese.
9. cut one small slit in the middle to let the steam escape.
