Stringy Cheese Straws

6/18/2017

0 Comments

 
I came back from a night away with the family forgetting the Olly Murs Concert was being held in my home town.  I realised that the nibbles I had been planning on buying to go with the cold glass of white wine I had been promising myself was not going to happen due to the grid locked roads close to my house.
Disappointed I scanned my virtually empty fridge looking for some inspiration.
I found a packet of puff pastry which was reaching it’s sell by date and lots of ready grated cheese which I always keep in stock of for my young son and his never ending demand for the bowls of pasta he insists on making himself.
  1. I rolled the pastry out and sprinkled some grated parmesan and some grated mozzarella cheese on top.
  2. Folded the pastry over and did the same again. 
  3. Continued this a couple more times, before brushing it with a beaten egg and sprinkling some salt and pepper on top before cutting the pastry into thin stripes (You can use any type of cheese for this and replace the beaten egg with some milk if you prefer).
  4. Baked it in a hot oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes.

The still warm and slightly stringy (due to the mozzarella) cheese straws went down a storm with my family and tasted delicious with my ice cold glass of white wine.  Costing the same if not less than a large packet of crisps I will be doing the same again next weekend!!
