Roasted Eggplant & Cheese Pastry
- 1 packet of dry yeast
- 1/2 cup of warm water
- 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar
- 5.5 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup of olive oil
- 1 egg white
- 1/2 teaspoon of yogurt
For the top
- 1 egg yolk
- Poppy seed and sesame mix
for inside
- 2 roasted eggplants
- 2 roasted peppers
- 100 g grated cheddar cheese
- 50 g cheddar cheese
Mix the yeast in warm water with added sugar. Wait 15 minutes for it to foam. Sift the flour and salt into the dough mixing bowl and mix. Open the middle like a pool. Add the yeast water and mix. Add the remaining liquid ingredients. Knead until you get a smooth dough. Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rest for half an hour at room temperature.
Finely chop the roasted eggplant for the stuffing. Finely chop the roasted pepper and put it in a bowl. Add grated cheddar cheese and cottage cheese and prepare the stuffing.
Prepare 20 equal meringues from the dough you have rested. Roll out each meringues in a round shape with your fingertips on the counter. Cut half of the dough you rolled into thin strips with the help of a knife. Take 1 teaspoon of softened butter and spread it on the flat dough. Spread the filling on the edge of the dough, wrap it in a roll and fold the ends inwards like a croissant. Place on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper. Prepare all pastries in the same way. Brush them with a mixture of egg yolk and milk and leave them to ferment in the tray. Bake in a preheated 180 degree oven for 25 minutes and serve warm.
