Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet Puff pastry sheet
- 100 grams Salami
- 60 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 large Egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour and roll out the puff pastry sheet to ensure even thickness.
Layer the salami slices evenly across the puff pastry, leaving a 1 cm (1/2 inch) border along one edge.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the salami, followed by the chopped parsley.
Season the filling with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Starting from the edge opposite the border, tightly roll the puff pastry into a log shape. Seal the edge with a bit of beaten egg to ensure it holds.
Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 12 equal pieces (approximately 1 cm/ 1/2 inch thick).
Arrange the pinwheels cut-side up on the prepared baking tray, leaving space between each piece.
Brush the tops of the pinwheels with the remaining beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake the pinwheels in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden and puffed.
Remove the pinwheels from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm as an appetizer or snack and enjoy!
