<\/a> <\/p>\nOne pack of pre rolled puff pastry
\n2 red onions
\n1 red peppers
\n8-12 Cherry tomatoes
\nSome\u00a0 Mushrooms
\nRoasted red pepper pesto
\nMozzarella
\nCheddar<\/p>\n
Take the pastry out of the fridge before you start, that way it will have warmed slightly<\/strike> be less cold before you’re ready for it and is less likely to crack when you unroll from the pack.<\/p>\n
Pre heat oven to Gas mark 6 (or whatever that equates to in \u00b0c\/\u00b0f)<\/p>\n
Peel and quarter the onions and separate the layers and slice the peppers.<\/p>\n
Chop mushrooms into quarters.<\/p>\n
Heat some olive oil in a heavy bottomed pan and throw in the veg, after a couple of minutes throw in the mushrooms and either 2 or 3 cherry tomatoes per slice (dependant on taste). Remove pan from the heat when the veg is starting to look charred and the tomatoes soft.<\/p>\n
Unroll the pastry, lie flat and cut into quarters.<\/p>\n
Now take a sharp knife and score a line all the way around the rectangle about 1cm in from the edge being sure not to cut all the way through. (Don’t worry if you do a little in parts turn the pastry and smooth with your finger to rejoin the edges), and place on a baking tray.<\/p>\n
Using the score lines as a guide spread the pesto over the inside of the slice.<\/p>\n
Now spoon the vegetable mix equally on top of the pesto. <\/p>\n
Milk or egg wash the visible pastry and put on the top shelf of the oven.<\/p>\n
Cook for approx 10 mins or until the pastry is starting to puff.<\/p>\n
Remove from the oven and crumble the mozzarella and as much grated cheddar as you like over the veg. <\/p>\n
Season with black pepper and return to the oven for 5 minutes, or until the pastry has browned and the cheese melted.<\/p>\n
Finish with a couple of leaves of fresh basil.<\/p>\n
I served these with rocket, cherry tomatoes and olives with a balsamic dressing.<\/p>\n
Variations, I think this would work with roast vegetables too and I’m planning on trying a similar method with ham, asparagus and cheese. In fact I think you could use this method to top the pastry with just about anything!<\/p>\n
