Vegan Recipe of Week - Puff Pastry Parcels

Yesterday I wrote a review of Jus-Rol pastry, so to tie in with that, this week's recipe is great for using left over pastry after making a pie.

Puff Pastry Parcels

(Serves 4)

Ingredients:

Puff pastry offcuts
Marmite (optional)
Tomato Puree
Garlic Salt
Vegan Mozzarella (grated)
Vegan milk for brushing (unsweetened)
Frylight

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180C.

Roll the pastry offcuts out to around the thickness of a pound coin.

Cut out a square around the size of a A5 piece of paper and then cut in half diagonally leaving two triangles of pastry. Repeat this process so you have four triangles of pastry.

Spread two of the triangles with tomato puree and sprinkle with garlic salt.

Spread the other two with a thin layer of Marmite. (If you don't like Marmite, make all four using the tomato puree and garlic salt)

Sprinkle grated mozzarella (I used Cheezly) over all four triangles and then gather the three corners up to the middle and pinch together to form a parcel.

Spray a baking sheet with Frylight and place all four parcels on the sheet.

Brush them with any unsweetened vegan milk and chill in the fridge for ten minutes.

Bake in the centre of a preheated oven for around 18-20 minutes until golden.

Serve as a starter.

Eat and Enjoy!

The Ordinary Vegan - Jus-Rol Pastry

This week on TOV, I am sharing one of my fridge staples. Jus-Rol pastry comes in blocks of puff pastry, shortcrust pastry and filo pastry. It also comes in ready rolled sheets, both of which can be kept in the fridge for around a week. You can also buy the pastry from the freezer cabinets in the supermarkets or freeze the chilled pastry yourself. The pastry is labelled suitable for vegans and is Vegetarian Society approved also. 

I find this pastry so versatile and it is great for baking tarts or making a quick pie for dinner. You can use it for sweet and savoury dishes. Jus-Rol is sold in all major supermarkets and many smaller grocery stores. It sells for around £1.50 per packet but is often on offer for £1 or 2 for £2.

Here are some of the dishes I have created using the pastry:
