RECIPE NOTES
- For cutting baked pastry sheets easily without squishing or waste, it’s recommended to use a serrated bread knife. This type of knife allows for clean, precise cuts through the pastry, maintaining its shape and texture effectively.
- Store baked puff pastry in tightly sealed containers to maintain freshness. When you’re ready to enjoy them, simply bake the pastries for about 5 minutes to restore their delightful crunchiness before serving. This quick reheating step will ensure that your puff pastry treats taste just as delicious as when they were freshly baked.

minutesIngredients
2 sheets puff pastry
1 avocado
8 large eggs
2 handfuls of chopped red cabbage
1 small onion
handful cilantro
1 lemon
1 tsp olive oil
salt to taste
1/4 tsp black pepper
Directions
- Cut the pastry sheets into equal-sized squares or desired shapes. Place them on a tray lined with parchment paper. Brush the pastry with beaten egg and sprinkle sesame seeds over the top. This will add a beautiful finish and texture to your pastries.
- Bake the prepared pastry squares in a preheated oven at 170°C for about 20 minutes or until they turn golden brown. Once baked, remove them from the oven and set them aside to cool before assembling your sandwiches
- To create the avocado base, combine mashed avocado with chopped cilantro, chopped onion, lemon juice from one lemon, salt, and a drizzle of olive oil. Mix thoroughly until the avocado mixture is thick and well blended.
- To make scrambled eggs, beat eggs with salt and pepper. Cook them in a hot pan with a sprinkle of oil, stirring continuously for about 1 minute, until they are just cooked. Remove the scrambled eggs from the pan and set them aside.
- To assemble, start by cutting each pastry square in half horizontally. Spread a generous layer of avocado mixture onto the bottom halves of the pastries, followed by a portion of fluffy scrambled eggs.
Top the eggs with a sprinkle of chopped red cabbage for added crunch and colour. Finally, gently place the top halves of the pastries over the fillings.
Serve and enjoy!
