Cooking time :

ready roll sheet of puff pastry,

1/4 carton

tomato, garlic and herb passata,

balls of reduced fat mozzarella,

1 tsp

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Lay out the puff pastry sheet and roll it out a little thinner but keep it in a rectangle shape with two edges slightly shorter.

* Step 2

Take the passata and spread it evenly over the pastry leaving a 1cm clean edge at the sides. Sprinkle over the Italian herbs and season with salt and pepper.

* Step 3

Tear up the mozzarella balls and the basil leaves and spread over neatly.

* Step 4

Now starting from the shorter side, roll up the pastry as tight as possible starting from one end and finishing at the other.

* Step 5

Refrigerate for around 15-30 minutes to set, or leave covered on a plate in cling film over night if prepping for an event the next day.

* Step 6

Once set, take a really sharp knife and cut the roll into 1.5cm rings. Pre heat your oven to 180 (fan) or gas mark 6. Lay the pinwheels out on a greaseproof paper lined baking tray.

* Step 7

Brush each one over with some beaten egg wash. Bake them in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until risen, golden and flakey. Leave to cool for a few minutes before serving, so they hold their shape better. Superb eaten as is, or with dips!
