Time 50m

Yield 15 Bites, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

320 g puff pastry
100 g chorizo sausage
plain flour, for dusting
1 egg yolk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees centigrade.
  • Grease an oven proof baking tray.
  • Cut the chorizo in to thin rectangular sticks ½ inch wide and 3 inches long.
  • On a clean surface scatter some plain flour and roll out the puff pastry until it is an inch thick.
  • Then cut the pastry in to long thin strips about a half an inch wide and 9 inches long.
  • The next bit is a bit fiddly using one pastry strip wrap it around the chorizo a bit like a twister until the chorizo is fully covered with the pastry, if the pastry is bit short it doesn't matter too much.
  • Refrigerate the chorizo and puff pastry bites for roughly 10-20 minutes.
  • Once they have been refrigerated place the bites on to the baking tray making sure they are not over crowded.
  • Then use a pastry brush and paste the bites with egg wash.
  • Cook the pastry bites in the oven for abut 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked.
  • Transfer them to wire rack until completely cooled.
