Time 1h20m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 cups chopped fresh mushrooms
1 cup chopped onion
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
½ cup chopped fresh tomatoes, drained
1 (5.2 ounce) package garlic and herb cheese spread (such as Boursin®)
2 tablespoons heavy cream
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12x18-inch sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Place thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface. Roll out to a 10x14-inch rectangle and place on the prepared sheet. Score edges with a sharp knife, about 3/4 inch from the edge of the pastry, being careful not to cut all the way through the pastry. Inside the scored edges, prick several times with a fork. Brush pastry with beaten egg, reserving any unused.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
  • Combine olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. When butter is melted, add chopped mushrooms and chopped onion. Cook until vegetables release their liquid, then continue cooking until the skillet is nearly dry, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Season onions and mushrooms with salt and pepper and stir in thawed and drained spinach and chopped tomatoes.
  • Combine the remainder of the beaten egg, garlic and herb cheese spread, and cream in a small bowl. Gently brush cheese mixture over the partially baked puff pastry, staying inside the scored edges.
  • Distribute the vegetable mixture over the cheese mixture and bake until the edges of the pastry are nicely browned and the cheese mixture is set, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan about 5 minutes.
  • To serve, cut into serving pieces and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 cups diced potato
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 cup diced carrots
1 cup thinly sliced celery
3/4 cup diced green bell pepper
3/4 cup diced mushrooms
3/4 cup diced green peas, fresh or frozen
3/4 cup diced zucchini
3/4 cup corn, fresh, canned, or frozen
1 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
1 1/2 pounds store-bought puff pastry
1 large egg, beaten
Seasonal salad greens, for serving
Tomato wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet and saute the onion over medium heat until softened. Add the potato, garlic, ginger and curry powder. Saute, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes. Add the carrots, celery, peppers, mushrooms, green peas, zucchini, corn, salt and pepper, to taste. Cover and cook over low heat for about 15 minutes or until the vegetables are very tender and the mixture is quite dry. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Divide the pastry into 8 pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll 1 piece out to form a circle about 10 inches in diameter. Spoon one-eighth of the curried vegetable mixture into the center, and gather the pastry up to form a bundle, pinching the pastry together to hold it in place. Trim the ragged ends from the top of the pastry bundle. Repeat with the remaining pastry and filling. Use the pastry trimmings to make leaf and berry shapes and decorate the bundles, sticking them on with some of the beaten egg. Brush the bundles all over with the egg, lift them carefully onto the baking sheet, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and the filling is heated through. Serve immediately on salad greens, garnished with tomato wedges.

Tips:

  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your dish the best flavor. If you are using frozen vegetables, be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • Season your vegetables: Before you wrap them in puff pastry, be sure to season your vegetables with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't be afraid to mix and match different vegetables in your dish. This will give you a more interesting and flavorful dish.
  • Be careful not to overcook the vegetables: Vegetables in puff pastry should be cooked until they are tender, but not mushy. Overcooked vegetables will make your dish soggy.
  • Serve vegetables in puff pastry immediately: Vegetables in puff pastry are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that the puff pastry is still crispy and the vegetables are still hot and flavorful.
