    Pinwheels 

    I love finding new things to do with leftovers and I had some leftover mashed potato, in the fridge, usually I make fish cakes

    In the middle of the night, I woke up and this idea came into my head, Why not pinwheels?

    I lovemaking savoury pinwheels, and have tried many flavours

    Here’s my latest

    I haven't given exact quantities and it all depends on how much mashed potato one has

    You will need

    Sheet of Flaky Puff Pastry

    Mashed potatoes 

    Red pepper finely chopped

    Red onion finely chopped 

    A Tbs spoon grated Parmesan 

    Small splash Sweet Chilli Sauce 

    A little chopped spring onion leaf just for colour 

    Egg to bind and to brush over  before baking

    Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 


    First, Prepare your vege




    Mix the potatoes, red pepper, red onion, green onion

    Sweet Chilli sauce and enough egg to bind 

    Season with sea salt and black pepper 

    Set aside while you wait for the pastry to defrost

    Lay the pastry sheet on bench

    Brush the top edge with egg 

    Cover 2/3 of the sheet with the potato mix

    Roll and place in fridge for at least 2 hours




    Heat oven to 180C

    Take roll out of fridge

    Cut into slices. 

    Place on baking sheet and brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with grated Parmesan Cheese and grate a little lemon zest over the top

    Bake 

    After 10 mins check. 

    I like to turn the tray around for the remainder of the Cook

    Should be done in another 5 mins

    This time some of them needed a little bit more time, so they went back for another 2 mins

    Remove from oven and leave to cool on rack


    Best served just warm, or room temperature


     Very tasty 


    So off to drinks, I went, accompanied by my tasty delights and they were a huge success
