DESCRIPTION

These ham and cheese puff pastry pinwheels are easy to make and fun to make with the kids. They're a perfect option for a picky eater's lunch box and there are endless possibilities when it comes to the fillings.

INGREDIENTS

1 x 320g sheet ready rolled puff pastry, thawed if frozen

A few spoonful’s of passata*

¼ tsp dried oregano

¼ tsp garlic powder

100g grated mozzarella & cheddar mix

4 sundried tomatoes, finely chopped

1 slice of ham, roughly chopped

1 egg, beaten

METHOD

1. Preheat oven to 180C fan and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

2. Unroll the pastry gently so that it doesn’t crack.

3. Spread the passata or tinned chopped tomatoes evenly over the pastry leaving a 2cm margin on the shorter side. Sprinkle the oregano, garlic powder and cheese on top. Then evenly distribute the chopped sundried tomatoes and ham.

4. Roll up the pastry tightly, starting with the long side. Slice the pastry into 8 - 10 equal slices.

5. Place the pinwheels on the lined tray so that the swirl is facing upwards. Brush lightly with beaten egg and place in a preheated oven for approximately 14-16 minutes until the pastry is golden brown.

NOTES:

• These can be served hot or cold.

• Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

• Any variety of toppings can be used.

  *If you don’t have passata you can use tinned chopped tomatoes or a shop bought pizza sauce instead.
