These are just DE-LICIOUS and a rather nice change from the usual SAUSAGE rolls!! * Once cooked these little treats may be frozen. Or, they can be prepared up to 3 days in advance and be refrigerated. Ingredients:
4 ready rolled puff pastry sheets |
1 cup chicken, cooked and chopped |
1 can asparagus, drained or 1/2 cup fresh asparagus, cooked and chopped |
2 tablespoons sour cream |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (, these may be substitued with chopped spring onions) |
50 g tasty cheese, finely chopped or grated |
salt and pepper |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
Directions:
1. Cut each pastry sheet into 4 strips, and cut each strip crossways to give 3 rectangles.
2. Roll each rectangle on lightly floured surface until they measure approximately 3 x 6 .
3. Combine the chicken, asparagus sour cream, chives (or spring onions) and cheese in a bowl.
4. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
5. Spoon a teaspoon of the mixture onto each rolled out pastry rectangle.
6. Lightly brush the edges with egg and fold in the long sides first before folding in the ends to form'parcels'.
7. Place pastries seam side down on greased oven trays.
8. *Shortly before serving, brush each pastry with egg and bake in a moderately hot oven for about 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
