How you do it
How you do it
- Remove Primula Cheese from the fridge and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Unroll one puff pastry sheet and place it on the baking tray. Add the pesto to the pastry sheet and spread evenly with a knife.
- Unroll the second puff pastry sheet and place it on top of the first one.
- Use a star-shaped cookie cutter to cut out a star from one corner of the layered pastry and set it aside.
- Cut the remaining layered pastry into the shape of a Christmas tree (triangle), with a wide trunk and base. Remove the excess pastry and set it aside for decorations.
- Lightly score two lines (approximately 3cm wide) down the centre of the triangle to create a tree trunk.
- Use the trunk as a guide and cut branches into the sides of the triangle, approximately 2cm wide.
- Leave the top 5cm - the pastry star will be placed here later.
- Working from the top of the tree, twist each branch away from you, giving two turns to each branch.
- Cut a star from the excess pastry and place it on top of the tree – secure it with a little beaten egg. Brush the star and tree with beaten egg.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes, before carefully placing onto a wire rack to cool further.
- Place on a serving plate or board. Decorate with Primula Cheese, basil and sun-blushed tomatoes to create a Christmas tree effect.
