CHORIZO PUFF PASTRY BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees centigrade.
• Grease an oven proof baking tray.
• Cut the chorizo in to thin rectangular sticks ½ inch wide and 3 inches long.
• On a clean surface scatter some plain flour and roll out the puff pastry until it is an inch thick.
• Then cut the pastry in to long thin strips about a half an inch wide and 9 inches long.
• The next bit is a bit fiddly using one pastry strip wrap it around the chorizo a bit like a twister until the chorizo is fully covered with the pastry, if the pastry is bit short it doesn't matter too much.
• Refrigerate the chorizo and puff pastry bites for roughly 10-20 minutes.
• Once they have been refrigerated place the bites on to the baking tray making sure they are not over crowded.
• Then use a pastry brush and paste the bites with egg wash.
• Cook the pastry bites in the oven for abut 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked.
• Transfer them to wire rack until completely cooled.
