Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 200 grams Mushrooms, finely chopped
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium Carrot, grated
- 1 medium Zucchini, grated
- 1 cup Canned chickpeas, drained and mashed
- 1 cup Walnuts, finely chopped
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 unit Egg
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Thyme, dried
- 1 teaspoon Rosemary, dried
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, ground
- 1 unit Puff pastry sheet, thawed
- 1 tablespoon Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the chopped mushrooms, red bell pepper, grated carrot, and zucchini. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Add the mashed chickpeas and walnuts to the skillet, stirring to combine.
Stir in breadcrumbs, then remove the skillet from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large bowl, mix the vegetable mixture with the egg, soy sauce, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface if needed, and spread the vegetable filling along one edge, leaving a border of about 1 inch.
Carefully roll the pastry over the filling to make a log, sealing the edges and ends.
Transfer the roll to the prepared baking sheet and brush the top with milk to ensure golden browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the pastry is deep golden brown.
Allow the roll to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm as a main dish or appetizer.
