Step by Step Guide to Minced Meat Cheese Puff Swirls
Ingredients
Let’s dive into the detailed steps to create these savory and cheesy puff pastry swirls:
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- Butter for greasing
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 300g minced meat (beef or chicken)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 100g grated cheese (mozzarella or cheddar)
- 1 bunch parsley, chopped
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking tray with butter.
-
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion in a bit of oil until soft. Add the minced meat and cook until browned.
-
Season the meat with salt, pepper, and dried basil. Stir in chopped parsley and remove from heat. Let the filling cool slightly.
-
Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a flat surface. Evenly spread the cooked meat mixture over the pastry.
-
Sprinkle grated cheese over the meat, then roll the pastry up tightly into a log.
-
Slice the roll into even rounds, about 1 inch thick, and place them flat on the greased tray.
-
Top each slice with a bit more cheese, if desired.
-
Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.
