Prep time
15 mins
Ingredients
- Egg: 1 egg, beaten
- Green Bean: steamed green beans, to serve
- Creme Fraiche: 4 tbsp half-fat creme fraiche
- Watercress: 85g watercress, chopped
- Broccoli: 100g broccoli, cut into florets
- Salmon: 170g pack poached salmon fillets, flaked
- Ready Rolled Puff Pastry: 425g pack ready-rolled puff pastry sheets
Directions
- Cook the broccoli in lots of boiling water until tender. Drain and rinse in cold water until cool. Drain well and set aside. In a mini chopper or food processor, blitz the watercress and creme fraiche with some seasoning.
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Unroll the pastry sheets. Place one on a baking sheet. Cut out a 2cm-wide border from the second sheet, like a picture frame, and stick this onto the first sheet with some of the beaten egg. Prick the base all over with a fork. Bake for 10 mins until golden.
- Cut remaining pastry into 2cm wide strips. Spread on the creme fraiche, scatter with the flaked salmon, broccoli and seasoning, and top with the strips of pastry to make a lattice.
- Brush with beaten egg and cook for 20-25 mins until pastry is golden and cooked through and the filling is hot. Serve with green beans.
