- Pre-heat the oven to 200°C.
- Whisk the egg with milk to use for the egg wash.
- Make sure the puff pastry sheet is thawed. Cut each pastry sheet into 10 rectangles.
- Cut a smaller rectangle in the centre of one of the pieces. Brush a bit of egg wash around the edges of the bottom rectangle which should be whole and place the rectangle that had the centre cut out right on top.
- In a bowl mix all ingredients for your cream cheese together (cream cheese, chives, garlic and zested lemon) and mix.
- Fill the inside with the cream cheese filling.
- Brush the edges of the pastry with the egg wash.
- Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
- Once cooled, to finish and serve, stack your puff pastry with the dressed rocket salad, and carefully lay the cured salmon over to create a wonderful layered effect.
