Steps:

• Heat a pan with 2 tsp of oil and add 1/2 tsp cumin seeds.

• Now add 1/2 tsp ginger garlic paste and fry for a couple of minutes until the raw smell is gone.

• When the onions are soft and there is no water left, remove from heat.

• Close the puff either from all 4 edges or just bring two opposite edges together. Gently press the edges (as you can see my eggs were larger and I couldn't seal the edges) Repeat this with rest of the cut puff pastry sheets. Meanwhile preheat the oven at 200°C for 20mins and also place the prepared puffs in freezer for 15mins.
