Simple Starters

Simple Starters
Kim Ruzich 0 Comments Tags: appetizers, beginners.

When starting to cook, it is essential to have recipes that are simple in order to build a budding cook’s confidence. Below is listed a very simple recipe for Goat Cheese in Puff Pastry, which is perfect with the Holidays rapidly approaching. This should do very well at any dinner party celebrating such occasions.

Preparation: 20 min
Cooking: 15 min

Ingrédients (serves 4):

- 1 goat cheese (5 oz), Bucheron type (cylindric shaped)
- 1 puff pastry
- 1 egg
- basil

Directions:

Cut the cheese in 8 equal slices.

Using a glass, make 16 disks in the puff pastry. Set each slice of cheese on a disk of puff pastry, sprinkle the basilic and cover with the remaining puff pastry.

Seal firmly the small pies. Coat the top with the egg yolk before putting them in the oven (15 min at 410°F).

Serve with a green salad if the cook wishes.

I am a novice cook, therefore I find the simplicity of Gourmandia refreshing. I don't feel like I should have attended the Cordon Bleu before attempting these recipes. I will be sharing My Favorite Things on a weekly basis. I look forward to seeing you all!
