Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 g button mushrooms
- 1 medium onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tsp fresh thyme
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 50 g cream cheese
- 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
Instructions
Clean and finely chop the button mushrooms, onion, and garlic.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, sauté the onions until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the garlic and sauté for another minute, then add the mushrooms and cook until all the liquid has evaporated, about 8-10 minutes.
Stir in the fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper, then remove from heat and let the mixture cool for 5 minutes.
Add the cream cheese to the cooled mushroom mixture and mix until fully combined.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the puff pastry sheets on a floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 equal rectangles.
Place a spoonful of the mushroom filling along one long edge of each rectangle, leaving a small border.
Roll the pastry tightly over the filling to form a log, sealing the edge by pressing gently with your fingers.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the water to create an egg wash. Brush the logs with the egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Transfer the logs to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Mushroom Logs warm or at room temperature!
