Ingredients:
6 servings
- 1 package ready to cook puff pastry sheets
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tbsp milk
- 250g KAVLI Crayfish Cheese
- 24 pieces small peeled shrimps, cooked
- Fresh dill/ assorted herbs
Instructions:
Pre-heat the oven to 200°C.
Roll out the puff pastry and punch out 12 round pieces, 7 cm in diameter, on each puff pastry sheet. Place half of them on a baking sheet covered with baking paper.
Whisk milk and egg together and brush the rounds on the tray with the egg mixture.
Punch out a hole in the middle, 3 cm in diameter, on the remaining rounds, to make 6 rings
Place a ring on each round piece and brush with the egg mixture.
Bake the rounds in the middle of the oven for about 10 minutes so that the rounds have a nice golden color and have risen. Remove from the oven.
On a separate lined baking sheet, brush the punched out pieces with egg as well and bake until these too are golden and toasted.
Press down the center of the Vol-au-vent rounds with a spoon, then fill with KAVLI Crayfish Cheese and place the punched pieces as lids. Garnish with shrimps and garnish with your preferred herbs.
- Best served with a crisp glass of prosecco!
