We are talking salty pastry today, and a quite colorful such, perfect for the picnic. They can of course also be served as starter, or with a fresh tomato salad as a meal. They are very fast and easy to make. It takes 30 min to prepare, all in all, as long as the dough is not frozen and you remember to heat up the oven in time.
Ingredients for 8-10 pastries:
1 carrot
½ leek (preferably the green part)
½ dl crossed tomato
2 tbsp cheese spread with chive
1 vegetable stock cube
1-2 tbsp vegetable oil
chili powder
your favorite spice (curry or perhaps cacao?)
Pastry dough** (FIN: torttutaikinalevyjä | SWE: smör/tårtdegsplattor)
** You need a flaky pastry butter dough. The dough can of course be home made too, but I use to buy it ready, rolled out in ½ cm thick pieces. If you cannot find this, I suppose filo dough in several layers will work fine as well.
Directions:
- Grid the carrot roughly
- Chop the leek into thin slices
- Fry leek and carrot in oil until soft
- Add the tomato and the stock cube and boil until everything has mixed
- Add the cheese and let it melt
- Add salt if needed
- Cut the pastry dough into 8-10 square pieces (8×8 cm)
- On each piece, place a heaped spoon full of the mixture (be careful to leave the edges free from the mixture)
- Close each piece, either by bringing up all the corners to the middle and squeeze them together, or (better for picnic) fold it to a triangle and close the edges by pressing with a fork.
- Place the pastries on an oven tray (on oven paper) and decorate with the chili and your favourite spice
- Place in the oven (225 °C) for 10-15 minutes until golden or slightly brownish
Bring 3-4 pastries for each person, plus a salad or other snacks.
Have a nice picnic! :)
