how to cook Cheese Spinach Puff Pastry Rolls?

STEP 1

To start, preheat your oven to 175⁰C (350⁰F). Grab a small bowl and crack an egg into it. Give it a light beating with a whisk, then add some water and give it a good stir.

STEP 2

Next, take your thawed spinach and place it in a fine sieve. Press down firmly with a wooden spoon to get rid of any excess liquid. Spread the drained spinach evenly over a paper towel, then cover it with another towel and gently pat it dry.

TIPS: Frozen spinach not cutting it for you? Fresh spinach leaves can be a great alternative. Just blanch them in boiling water for 30 seconds, drain in a colander, and give them a good squeeze with a wooden spoon to remove excess liquid.

STEP 3

Now, take your yeast puff pastry, which should be thawed according to the instructions on the package. Place it on a lightly floured surface and give it a light roll-out.

TIPS: If you’re looking for recommendations on working with puff pastry and three different ways to defrost it, check out our informative articles: “How to Thaw Frozen Puff Pastry“, “How to Bake Frozen Puff Pastry in Oven“, and “Tips How to Make Puff Pastry Recipes“.

STEP 4

Grab that beaten egg mixture and brush it all over the rolled-out dough. Sprinkle the grated cheese evenly over the dough, making sure to leave a 2 cm space from one edge.

TIPS: Pre-grated cheese is incredibly convenient for preparing a wide range of dishes.

TIPS: If cracks appear while you’re working with puff pastry, don’t worry! Simply moisten them with a little water and then press down with your fingers to bring the dough back together. Easy peasy!

STEP 5

Spread the squeezed spinach across the cheese, and season it all with some salt, ground black pepper, and dried garlic.

TIPS: Instead of using dried garlic, you can opt for a small clove of fresh garlic as a substitute. To prepare it, finely chop or use a garlic press to extract its flavor.

STEP 6

Roll up the dough, starting from the short side and ending with the unfilled edge.

TIPS: When working with puff pastry, it can sometimes be tricky to seal the edges and keep the filling intact. To make things easier, try using an egg brush (an egg and water mixture). Simply brush the edges of the pastry with it and press firmly. This will help everything stay in place.

STEP 7

Once it’s all rolled up, cut it into 1.5 cm wide pieces. Brush the top of each piece with the remaining egg mixture.

TIPS: When cutting the log into rolls, it is easier to use a bread knife with a serrated blade or a fishing line to prevent the dough from wrinkling.

TIPS: To apply an egg brush, it’s handy to have a special pastry brush. But if you don’t have one, no worries! You can simply use the tip of a folded paper towel or even just brush the dough with your finger.

STEP 8

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the rolls on it.

STEP 9

Cover the sheet with cling film and let it rise for 20 minutes in a warm, draft-free spot. Ideally, the temperature should be around 25°C (77°F).

TIPS: If you don’t have cling film, a clean kitchen towel can be used to cover the dough.

STEP 10

Once the rolls have risen, pop them in the oven that’s been preheated to 175⁰C (350⁰F). Immediately reduce the temperature to 150°C (300⁰F) and bake them for 15-20 minutes.

STEP 11

When they’re done, take the rolls out of the oven and let them cool slightly.

STEP 12
