Cheers and Cheese with Prosecco DOC and Grana Padano

Made with Grana Padano and a hint of rosemary, these twists are incredibly easy to whip up and absolutely delicious. Serve them hot or cold, and enjoy the perfect crunchy snack for any occasion.

Ingredients:

  • 320g ready-rolled puff pastry (remove from the fridge 5 minutes before starting)

  • 90g Grana Padano, grated

  • Small bunch of rosemary, leaves separated

  • 1 medium egg, lightly beaten

  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste

Method:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) fan.

  2. Prepare the Puff Pastry: Lay out a piece of baking paper larger than the puff pastry. Grate a layer of Grana Padano cheese over the baking paper and sprinkle with some rosemary leaves. Place the puff pastry on top and roll it out to 3mm thick.

  3. Add Toppings and Fold: Sprinkle the remaining Grana Padano cheese and rosemary over the pastry. Season with sea salt and black pepper. Fold the pastry in half by bringing the furthest end towards you, and then roll it out again to maintain a 3mm thickness.

  4. Cut and Twist: Neaten the edges of the pastry so they are straight. Thinly slice the pastry into 2cm strips, or use a pizza cutter. Twist each strip and place it on a lightly greased baking tray. Continue until all strips are twisted.

  5. Egg Wash and Season: Lightly brush the twists with the beaten egg. Season with additional sea salt and black pepper.

  6. Bake: Place the baking tray in the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until the twists are golden and crispy.

  7. Serve: Serve these crispy cheesy twists hot or cold. They pair wonderfully with a glass of Prosecco, making them the perfect snack for entertaining or enjoying a quiet evening at home.
