I made hm veggie sausage rolls, and made the puff pastry too - its very therapeutic, but I dont do it often, honest. I have a rectangle of about six inches by eight left. Cheese straws are out, no marmite or mustard in the house. I have mushrooms, garlic, pappers, gorgeous mature gruyere, and a very old gouda in the fridge as well as all sorts of other things, but I just cant think what.to make with it. Any suggestions? Oh, we are veggi btw.

    How about making a puff pastry based pizza? I have made pizza using the pastry and just add the topping as you please. I usually turn up the edges to make a wee lip so the tomato puree etc doesnt go over the sides. - lovely hot or cold.

    If you have any cream how about mille feulle (sp) ie puff pastry with cream and jam and iced on the top?

  • Thanks suzy, I am definitely thinking savoury rather than sweet. And something'grown up'. Could do a nice cheeses pizza, I suppose, but its just not hitting the spot, iyswim?

    know what you mean jackie - how about a nice filling with the veggies you have made into a nice spicy paste and make pinwheels (our butchers sells these with a thin layer of sausage meat) Just roll out the pastry spread the spicy filling and roll up like a swiss roll? SLice them before cooking and put on a greased tin

  • Yep, I'd suggest something like above too.
  • I saw this in Waitrose today and it looked divine - sort of a grown up pizza meets savoury tart. It does have pancetta, but I think a veggie version with mushrooms and peppers instead would be delicious!

  • Ooh I think iwill do half and half, I will do a sort of mushroom garlic paste thing for the pinwheels, and a wee tart witha gruyere cheese sauce with red peepers grilled with smoked paprika. My mouth is watering, thank you guys!!!
