Ingredients
- 1 ½ pound (750 g) asparagus
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- a pinch salt & pepper
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- ⅝ cup (150 g) plain skyr yogurt or plain greek yogurt, cream cheese
- ½ cup (50 g) grated cheese gruyère or cheddar
- 1 egg beaten
- some nigella seeds or sesame, poppy seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash the green asparagus, then snap off the woody ends. Mix with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
- Cut the puff pastry into 8 large rectangles, then add a dollop of the skyr yogurt to the middle of each one and slightly spread with the back of a spoon, leaving about ½” of room around the edges.
- Place 3-4 stalks of asparagus diagonally on the dough, then sprinkle grated cheese over them.
- Fold the two opposite corners of the pastry over the asparagus and press down slightly to prevent them from opening during baking.
- Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the puff pastry with egg wash and sprinkle some nigella seeds over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
Notes
- Leftovers can be stored for up to 3 days in an airtight container or wrapped in aluminum foil in the fridge.
