Number Of Ingredients 6

300 gram(s) puff pastry
3 ounce(s) thinly sliced good quality ham
2 teaspoon(s) dijon mustard
2 teaspoon(s) honey - runny
1 ounce(s) parmesan cheese - grated
1 - egg yolk - beaten with 1 tbsp water

Steps:

  • Roll puff pastry out on a floured surface to form a rectangle 6 inches by 14 inches. Trim edges.
  • Mix the honey and mustard together and spread over the pastry right up to the edges
  • Pat the slices of ham dry and lay on top of the honey/mustard.
  • Roll along the long length of the pastry until it reaches the middle. Then repeat with the other side.
  • Cut into 1/2 inches slices. I measure and mark them first, and then slice. Lay slices on baking tray lined with greaseproof paper. brush with the egg yolk mixture and bake in a preheated oven 190C for about 10 minutes until just turning golden.
  • When cooked remove from oven, lace on cooling rack and sprinkle with parmesan whilst still hot. Once fully cooled these can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Crisp up before serving in an oven at 200C for 3 minutes.
