Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
- 185 grams canned tuna, drained
- 100 grams shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a floured surface to ensure it doesn’t stick and let it rest for a few minutes.
In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, shredded cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, dijon mustard, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Spread the tuna mixture evenly onto the puff pastry, leaving about 1 centimeter (1/2 inch) of space around the edges.
Carefully roll the puff pastry into a tight log shape, starting from one of the longer edges.
Use a sharp knife to cut the rolled pastry into even 1.5 cm (1/2 inch) thick slices.
Place the spirals flat onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space in between each spiral.
Brush the tops and sides of the spirals with the beaten egg to give them a golden, glossy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the Tuna Cheese Spirals cool slightly before serving warm or at room temperature.
