Paprika Garnish: red bell pepper strips and cilantro leaves In small
bowl, with pastry blender or 2 knives, cut margarine into flour until
mixture resembles corn meal; sprinkle with ice water and, using fork,
mix to form soft dough. Roll dough between 2 sheets of wax paper to
form rectangle about 1/4 inch thick; remove paper and use 2-inch
diameter plain or fluted cookie cutter to cut dough into rounds. Roll
scraps of dough and continue cutting until all dough has been used
(should yield 24 rounds). Combine pork (or ham), cheese, mustard, and
red pepper in small bowl and set aside. Preheat oven to Beat egg white
lightly and brush an equal amount onto each pastry round. Spoon an
equal amount of the meat mixture (about 1/2 rounded teaspoon) onto
center of each round; fold pastry over, turnover-fashion, to enclose
filling. Press edges of dough together to seal. Transfer turnovers to
nonstick cookie sheet. Add milk to egg yolk and beat lightly; brush an
equal amount of mixture over each turnover and sprinkle each with a
dash of paprika. Bake until turnovers are golden brown, 15 to 20
minutes. Transfer to warmed serving tray; garnish with red pepper
strips and cilantro. Chili sauce or salsa can be served as a dipping
sauce. Makes 8 servings of 3 turnovers each. [WEIGHT WATCHERS NEW
