Speedy savouries

febbraio 17, 2009

Those speedy savouries, made with the ingredients I found in my fridge, are based on a Cavoletto recipe, but they are rearranged according to some absences: no cream, no taleggio cheese, no time to make the brisée.. but I had some puff pastry!
I used the last leeks I had, but they were really small, so let’s make savouries for two people!
Ingredients for 2 people:
puff pastry, 1 roll
leeks, 3
pecorino cheese, 50gr
cumin, 1 teaspoon
butter, 20 gr
extravirgin olive oil
salt & pepper

Once the puff pastry is defrosted, roll out the dough and cut it in little squares. In the meantime, in a frying pan melt the butter and add the sliced leeks (white and green part), a teaspoon of cumin, salt and pepper and let it stew until they’re soft (not more than 5 minutes).
Put a tablespoon of leeks on every puff pastry square, slice some pecorino cheese over it and some grinded pepper, then some drops of good extra virgin olive oil.
Bake in a preheated oven until they are golden and crisp.
Eat them warm!
