CHEESE AND PESTO SWIRLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees centigrade.
• Grease an oven proof baking tray.
• On a clean surface scatter some plain flour and roll out the puff pastry until it is an inch thick, about an 16x10 inch rectangle.
• Spread the pesto thinly on to the pastry making sure you leave a 1 inch margin all the way around.
• Then sprinkle the cheddar, dried basil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Starting with one of the long sides of the rectangle roll the puff pastry like a Swiss roll making sure you paste the last inch with the egg wash, to seal it.
• Once rolled refrigerate the pastry for at least 20- 30 minutes.
• Once you have removed the pastry roll from the fridge use a sharp knife and cut in to ½ inch slices and place the slices on to the baking tray.
• Then use a pastry brush and paste the slices with egg wash.
• Cook the slices in the oven for abut 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked.
• Transfer them to wire rack until completely cooled.
