Main Ingredients for Preparing Cheese Puff Pastry Pie:

Cheese Puff Pastry Pie

 

  • 1 pack of puff pastry dough, cut into squares

Filling Ingredients:

  • ½ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup of shredded white cheese
  • 1 small tomato, finely chopped
  • 2 stalks of green onions, finely sliced
  • 2 tablespoons of black olives, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon of oregano (or basil if oregano isn't available)
  • ½ teaspoon of crushed chili flakes

Glaze Ingredients:

  • 1 large egg yolk
  • ½ teaspoon of white vinegar

Garnishing Ingredients:

  • A moderate amount of sesame seeds

How to Prepare Cheese Puff Pastry Pie:

  1. Prepare the dough: A day before making this recipe, purchase a pack of puff pastry and leave it in the fridge until the next day. On the day of preparation, remove the pack from the fridge and let it sit for about 30 minutes until it softens slightly.

  2. Prepare the baking tray: Meanwhile, prepare a baking tray by lining it with parchment paper and setting it aside until needed.

  3. Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, mix all the cheeses together, then add the tomatoes, green onions, olives, oregano, and chili flakes. Stir well using a large plastic spoon until all the ingredients are well combined, creating a ready-to-use filling mixture.

  4. Roll out the dough: Open the puff pastry pack and take half of the squares without separating them completely. For example, if there are 10 squares in the pack, take 5 in the first stage and 5 in the second.

  5. Roll the first portion of puff pastry squares on a floured surface using a rolling pin until you get a large square dough. Set it aside, and repeat the same process with the remaining portion, ensuring both doughs are the same size.

  6. Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, mix the egg yolk and vinegar, whisking them with a fork for about 3 minutes.

  7. Assemble the pie: Place one of the dough squares on the baking tray and brush it with the glaze mixture. Then, generously place the filling in the center of the dough. Using a sharp knife, make slight cuts in the second dough square and place it over the filling. Press the edges well to seal both layers together, ensuring it doesn’t open while baking.

  8. Final touches: Brush the top with the glaze, sprinkle some sesame seeds, and preheat the oven to 190°C (374°F). Place the tray on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 20 minutes until the pie turns light golden. Remove it from the oven and serve it hot.

This delicious and nutritious pie is now ready for you to enjoy! We hope you love this recipe!
