Puff-pastry with onions and sunflower seeds


When I saw this recipe the first thought was that onion and sunflower seeds are strange combination. But it was so simple that I couldn’t resist trying it. And I can say that it’s very good snack. I just wanted to use coarse salt but I don’t have it, so I used fine salt and it was ok.

 

2 small sheets puff pastry

1 egg, beaten

1 middle size onion

2-3 tbsps sunflower seeds

salt

 

Thaw puff pastry sheets, roll a little bit to make them thinner. Coat with an egg. Sprinkle with onion, cut in half rings, sunflower seeds and salt. Cut in desired size squares and put them on baking sheet. Bake in preheated to 200°C oven about 20 minutes, or untill puff pastry nicely browns.

Small cheese pies


Delicious little pies. If I have Vienna sausages, I put them in the filling too and all you have to do is to take tomato sauce for the great food :)

 

200 g flour

120 g margarine

30 g fresh or 2 tsps. dry active yeast

90 ml milk

2 tsps. sugar

salt

100 g grated cheese (I used Gouda)

1 egg

 

Put flour, margarine, salt to the blender bowl and blend till crumbs. Rub yeast with the sugar and milk. Pour milk to the flour and knead the dough. Then roll the dough thinly, cut in squares (about 10×10cm). In the middle put cheese and press opposite coners of the dough to make an envelope. Put pies on baking tray lined with baking paper. Coat pies with beaten egg. Bake 15-20 minutes in 180°C preheated oven.

Bread sticks with paprika and sesame


Very good snack. Kids came from the kindergarden and ate only these sticks till none was left. I had to hide some for photosession. I baked them already two times. The first time I rolled sticks in sesame seeds, but the next day I had joy cleaning all house with vacuum-cleaner from the seeds :) The next time I put sesame seeds inside the dough and it was more practical and the taste didn’t differ very much.

 

(20-22 sticks)

250 g flour

5 g dry active yeast

1/2 tsp. salt

2 tsps. paprika

175 ml warm water

25 g sesame seeds (if you want to roll sticks in sesame you gonna need 25 g sesame seeds more)

 

Sift the flour, salt and paprika. Put yeast, sesame seeds and water. Knead the dough and let rise for an hour in warm place. Then on the floured surface form from the dough 15 x 30 cm rectangular. Cut dough in about 1cm thickness sticks. If you want to roll sticks in the sesame, now you have to do it. Overwind the sticks and put on the floured (or lined with the baking paper) baking tray. Cover and let rise for 20 minutes. Bake in 220°C preheated oven for 8 minutes.
