Instructions

  1. Sprinkle a clean surface with a little flour and roll out the puff pastry.

  3. Smear the tomato pesto on top of the cream cheese and add a little extra if you like
  4. Sprinkle with the cheddar cheese and a little dried basil (fresh would be next level!)
  5. Roll the pastry along the longest edge until completely rolled up.
  6. Slice into 1cm sections, which you can then place on a baking tray, lightly dusted with flour.
  7. Using a pastry brush, brush some egg on the outside of the pastries
