Roasting strawberries makes them tangy and sweet and they go particularly well with salty fresh feta. A slice of this makes a great snack or serve with a large salad for dinner.
Serves 6 Prep time 10 minutes Cook time 25-30 minutes V
375g sheet puff pastry, defrosted if frozen, at room temperature
200g reduced fat soft cheese
1 tbsp chives, snipped
2 tsp lemon thyme leaves or 1 tsp finely grated lemon zest
125g feta cheese, crumbled
125g strawberries, hulled and sliced
Drizzle of balsamic vinegar (optional)
Rocket leaves to serve
- Preheat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas mark 6. Unroll the pastry sheet onto a baking tray, keeping it on the paper from the pack. Score a line 2cm from the edge down each side.
- Combine the soft cheese, chives, the thyme or lemon zest and some pepper (the feta will add salt) and spread it over the pastry. Scatter over the feta and strawberries and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and puffed up.
- Serve warm drizzled with balsamic or top with rocket leaves and serve with a large salad.
Tip
You could also make this with goats cheese instead of the feta.
