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
