Method

To make Pesto, Tomato & Cheese Twists 

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 Fan.
  2. Unroll the pastry and place on a floured work surface. Roll the pastry out so it is slightly thinner using a rolling pin. Spread the pesto over the top of the pastry using a palette knife. Sprinkle the tomato and cheese on top. Lay a piece of baking paper or cling film on top, then gently roll to press the topping into the pastry.
  3. Slice the pastry into 14 long strips. Twist each strip to make a curled straw and place on a baking sheet lined with non-stick paper.
  4. Bake for about 20 minutes until golden and crisp.
