Heat the 2 tablespoons oil in a wok and saute the shallots, garlic and onion until fragrant. Add the chilli, ginger' and beef and fry until dry, stirring frequently to prevent the meat from burning. Pour in the remaining sherry, sugar, water, the five spice powder, paprika and seasoning to taste, then set aside to cool. Place a generous teaspoonful of the mixture on to a strip of pastry, then fold over the end corner to enclose the meat in a triangle of dough. Fold the again from the opposite side then continue folding the dough over and over until completely enclosed to make a triangular shaped pasty. Tuck the end in neatly.
