Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Roll out the 1 sheet puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 4 equal squares.
Step 3
Place 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella in the center of each square. Fold diagonally to form triangles, pressing edges with a fork to seal.
Step 4
Beat the 1 egg in a small bowl. Brush the tops of the pastries with the beaten egg.
Step 5
Bake for 15-18 minutes, until puffed and deep golden brown.
Step 6
While pastries bake, warm the 1/2 cup tomato sauce with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper in a small saucepan over low heat, about 5 minutes.
Step 7
Serve the hot pastries with the warm sauce for dipping.
