Roulés en pâte feuilletée aux olives et aux tomates séchées

Ingrédients

• 1 sheet puff pastry (10oz/280g, preferably all-butter puff pastry)
• 1 cup grated cheese (3.5oz/100g)
• 3/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed) (3.5oz/100g = 17 tomatoes)
• 1/2 cup black olives (17 olives (70g/2.5oz))
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon milk

Préparation

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 200°C / 400°F / Gas Mark 6 (no fan).

2. 2

   Grate the cheese (cheddar on large holes of a box grater, parmesan on small ones), drain the sun-dried tomatoes, finely chop the tomatoes (you should have 1/2 cup finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes) and olives. Mix all the ingredients together.

3. 3

   On a sheet of parchment paper or a silicone mat, lightly roll out the puff pastry to a thickness of approx. 2 mm / 1/16 inch into a rectangle shape. If you’re using all-butter puff pastry (homemade or store-bought) you need to sprinkle it well with flour, on both sides, before rolling out. It sticks a little more than a regular store-bought puff pastry.

4. 4

   Spread the filling in an even layer over the rolled out dough, press it lightly into the dough.

5. 5

   Roll up the dough to create a long roll.

6. 6

   Cut the log into ½ inch / 1 cm slices, using a very sharp serrated knife, or better a thread (as on the photos) - the slices will be more even and look better. Slice a piece of thread under the roll, cross the ends over the top, pull tight and repeat. Don't worry if the slices are not perfectly round and even!

7. 7

   Place the pinwheels on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, arrange the rolls 3 cm / 1 inch apart (they will rise a little). Press the pinwheels lightly to flatten them and adjust their shape. They should be roughly of even thickness.

8. 8

   Beat the egg with a fork and mix it with milk. Brush the pinwheels with the egg wash.

9. 9

   Bake the pinwheels for 10 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 180°C / 350°F / Gas Mark 4 and bake for about 13 minutes or until golden brown. Make sure to keep an eye on them in the last 5 minutes to ensure they won't burn. The baking time can be longer or shorter in your oven!

    Enjoy!
