Puff pastry bites with salsiccia and havarti - Salsiccia Rolls
Recipe for crisp puff pastry rolls with salsiccia, mature havarti and hot honey.
Ingredients
Hot honey
- 100 g honey
- 1 tbsp chilli flakes
- 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp chives, finely chopped
Puff pastry rolls
- 80 g cream cheese
- 1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
- 1 tbsp chives, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp hot honey from above
- 1 roll ready-rolled puff pastry
- 70 g mature havarti, grated
- 300 g salsiccia sausages
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- Melted butter, for brushing
Method
- Pour the honey into a small saucepan with the chilli flakes and heat through. Turn the heat right down, stir in the apple cider vinegar and leave it over the very lowest heat.Shortly before serving, stir in the chives.
- Mix the cream cheese, mustard, chives and hot honey together in a bowl and season with salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Unroll the puff pastry and cut it into two pieces - lengthways, so you have two long rectangles.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture over the two pieces and sprinkle the grated havarti down the middle of each piece.
- Remove the skins from the sausages and squeeze the meat between your fingers so it loosens up a little. Spread it down the middle of the two pieces of pastry - on top of the cheese.
- Roll the pastry tightly around the filling and pinch the seam together between two fingers.
- Make sure you roll it tightly. The filling shrinks slightly during baking.
- Cut each roll into 12 equal pieces.
- Grease a metal mini muffin tin with a little oil - and place a piece in each hole. Press them gently on top and brush with melted butter.
- If you do not have a metal mini muffin tin, you can place the pieces on a baking tray lined with baking paper instead.
- Bake the puff pastry rolls in a preheated conventional oven (top and bottom heat) at 200°C for about 25 minutes.
- Let them cool slightly in the tin or on the baking tray before arranging them on a platter and topping with hot honey. They are now ready to serve.
- If you find the filling falls out, support them with a fork under the base when you remove them from the tin or baking tray. As soon as they cool slightly, the filling sets and they are easy to serve as finger food.
