- 1/2 tsp Basil (Dried) (or use freshly chopped)
- 1 egg, beaten
Instructions
- Sprinkle a clean surface with a little flour and roll out the puff pastry.
- Smear the cream cheese onto the pastry so that it reaches all the edges.
- Smear the tomato pesto on top of the cream cheese and add a little extra if you like
- Sprinkle with the cheddar cheese and a little dried basil (fresh would be next level!)
- Roll the pastry along the longest edge until completely rolled up.
