Deli Galette: a simple, family-friendly savory galette for Yom Tov

# What this recipe is

# Why it works for family meals

• The filling is familiar: pastrami and turkey (or whatever deli meats you have) mixed with ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise. That keeps flavors recognizable to picky eaters.
• Galettes are visually appealing but easy to assemble. You don't need a pie dish or precise crimping—pleats and a rustic edge are fine.
• The galette can be frozen before baking, which makes it useful for Yom Tov or other meals where you want to prep ahead.

# Ingredients and core technique

• Core ingredients: puff pastry sheet, diced onion, diced pastrami, diced turkey, ketchup, yellow mustard, mayonnaise, duck sauce for brushing, Everything but the Bagel seasoning.
• Cook the onion in oil until golden at the edges, add diced cold cuts and stir briefly, then add ketchup, mustard, and mayo and cook until combined.
• Roll the thawed puff pastry into as square a sheet as possible, trim to a round by cutting off corners, mound the filling in the center leaving a 2–3 inch border, then fold and pleat the border to create a circular galette.
• Brush the crust with duck sauce and sprinkle the seasoning before baking.

# Timing and baking notes

• Preheat oven to 350°F.

• If you want to limit excess puffing, commenters suggest pricking with a fork or using pie crust instead of puff pastry as alternatives shared by readers.

# Variations and reader tips

• Swap meats. The author used pastrami and turkey but says you can use leftovers or any deli cuts you prefer.

• Alternate crusts: some readers recommended frozen pie crusts as a shortcut and to reduce puffing.
• Shortcut for onion: pre-fried onion cubes (store-bought) can be mixed in to skip sautéing.
