Spinach And Mushroom Cigars - this is a fusion with a puff pastry base and spinach and mushroom filling. Makes for the perfect evening snack with cup of hot tea. It also helped us win a competition. :)
Mix salt and maida in a bowl. add water to make a semi soft dough. roll the dough into a rectangular sheet and spread a layer of room temperature butter.
Fold the dough from either side and repeat the same process at least 5-6 times.
To make the filling, add chopped garlic in hot oil in a pan. stir for 30 seconds. Add chopped mushrooms and sauté for 1 min.
Add chopped spinach and salt. cook till all moisture evaporates. Add pizza seasoning. add cheese once the filling cools down.
Cut out several strips from the dough and add the filling and seal the edges of each strip using little water on the sides.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degree for 20 mins till the puff pastry is cooked through and turns golden brown on top. it will be very crispy and flaky. Serve hot.
