Ham & Cheese Croissants

Difficulty:

Preparation time: 1h

My mom sent me this recipe and what a great idea! The croissants were awesome, although it said on the recipe to use cottage cheese and I used grounded Gruyère instead. The only think I struggled with was the folding of the croissants so after a while I gave up and just made small pastries. It didn’t change the taste too much…

Ingredients

• 1 puff pastry
• 50g of grounded Gruyère
• 25mL of heavy cream
• 1 egg
• 1 onion
• 50g of cooked ham
• 1 garlic clove
• salt, pepper, thyme
• 1 tablespoon of olive oil

Instructions

1. In a saucepan, heat the onions and the garlic with the olive oil.
2. Add the cheese, ham and cream and cook them until the cheese is all melted.
3. Place the puff pastry on greaseproof paper and on an oven grid.
4. Cut the dough in 6 triangles and place a teaspoon of the stuffing on the base of each triangle.
5. Roll the triangles to form croissants, starting from the base to the tip.
6. Paint the top part using a brush with the yolk.
7. Place the pastries in the preheated oven for 15 min at 210ºC.

Serve hot or warm with a green salad.
Bon appétit!
