Categories     side-dish

Time 1h

Yield 16 crescents

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed
2 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
2 ounces crumbed garlic-and-herb feta cheese (about 1/2 cup)
3 scallions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for working the dough
Two 8-ounce cans refrigerated crescent-roll dough
1 large egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Put the spinach in a kitchen towel and wring very dry (to get about 1/2 cup dry spinach). Put the spinach into a large bowl, breaking up the clumps with your fingers. Add the cream cheese, feta, scallions, dill, Parmesan, lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt and some black pepper. Mix well.
  • Lightly flour your hands and work surface. Unroll the crescent dough and separate into triangles along the perforated lines. Put about a tablespoon of filling at the shortest end of a triangle, and roll. Place the roll, point-side down, on the prepared baking sheet, tucking in the ends to form a crescent shape. Repeat with the remaining triangles and filling, spacing the rolls at least 1 inch apart on the baking sheet.
  • Brush the dough with the egg wash and bake until puffed and golden brown, about 12 minutes. Let the crescents cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Time 40m

Yield 24 sausage rolls

Number Of Ingredients 12

200 g feta cheese, crumbled
1 small onion, finely chopped
200 g frozen spinach, defrosted and squeezed dry
1/2 cup dried breadcrumbs
2 lightly beaten eggs
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
1 tablespoon chopped of fresh mint
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
salt and pepper (lots of pepper)
2 sheets puff pastry, defrosted and cut in half
2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200c.
  • Mix all ingredients together (except pastry sheets).
  • Lay pastry sheets (with plastic attached) out on your counter.
  • Fill a large piping bag (no nozzle) with the mix and squeeze out a long line of mix down the long edge of the pastry-about 1/2 an inch in from that edge.
  • No piping bag? Divide mix in 4 and spoon this along the long edge.
  • Roll up, peeling the plastic away as you roll.
  • Seal the inner edge with a little water.
  • Cut each of these rolls into three, then cut each smaller roll ALMOST through in the middle (leave the bottom intact). When they are cooked, I cut them right through to make a bite sized roll, but cooking them this way keeps them moister.
  • Place on a baking tray, brush each with a little milk, then cook in pre heated oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown on top and cooked through.
