Ingredients

2 people
  • 1 sheet puff pastry (from the refrigerator section)
  • 1 egg yolk (+ a splash of milk)
  • sesame seeds (optional)
  • 100 gram crème fraîche
  • 1-2 tbsp pesto
  • 100 gram mozzarella balls (small size)
  • 50 gram cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 5 slices Serrano ham (or prosciutto)
  • 2 handful arugula
  • 1-2 tbsp Parmesan cheese ( shavings)

Equipment

  • Sheet pan
  • Pastry brush

INSTRUCTIONS (how to make this recipe):

  • Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celcius / 430 degrees Fahrenheit with top and bottom heat.
  • Roll out the puff pastry on the baking paper. Fold the edges up slightly if you’d like to create a decorative crust.
  • Brush the edges with the beaten egg yolk mixed with a splash of milk. Prick the center of the pastry with a fork. Optionally, sprinkle the edges with sesame seeds.
  • Pre-bake the puff pastry for 8 minutes.
  • Spread a thin layer of crème fraîche over the base, followed by a very light layer of green pesto.
  • Top with the mozzarella balls and halved cherry tomatoes. Bake for another 10–15 minutes, until golden brown and fully cooked.
  • Just before serving, add the Serrano ham, fresh arugula, and Parmesan shavings on top. Enjoy!
