EASY PARMESAN BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C/160C FanGas 4.
• Rub the butter into the flour, by hand or in a food processor, until the mixture looks like fine breadcrumbs.
• Stir in the parmesan, seasoning and cayenne pepper.
• Work the mixture together into a ball and then knead briefly on a work surface lightly dusted with flour until smooth.
• Cut the dough in half, flatten each piece slightly, then roll out thinly between 2 large sheets of cling film.
• Lift off the top piece of cling film and cut into 5cm/2in biscuits.
• Carefully lift them onto a lightly buttered baking sheet, then knead together and re-roll the trimmings to make more biscuits. You should make about 30 biscuits in total.
• Bake the biscuits for 8-10 minutes until crisp and golden. Leave to cool on the baking sheets. Store in an airtight tin.

ANCHOVY PALMIERS

Steps:

• Roll out the pastry to a 24 x 26cm rectangle. Brush with a little egg and place 4 spaced-out rows of anchovies over the pastry, parallel to the longest sides. Sprinkle the Parmesan between the rows.
• Roll up the pastry from each long side to meet in the middle, brushing with a little egg to help it stick. Using a very sharp knife, cut into thin slices. Place slices a little apart on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Chill for at least 30 mins, or cover with cling film and chill for up to 24 hrs.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Bake for 12-15 mins until the pastry is crisp and golden.
