Ingredients
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (half a 17.3-ounce package), thawed
8 ounces mortadella, cut into 1/2-by-1/2-by-2 1/2-inch batons
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 cup (approximately 2 ounces) grated Gruyere
Dijon mustard, for serving, optional
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unfold the sheet of puff pastry and roll into an 11-inch square. Using a pizza wheel or sharp knife, slice the dough into 1/2-inch-thick strips. Wrap each baton of mortadella in one strip of puff pastry, overlapping the dough slightly with each wrap-around to create a spiral appearance in the dough while leaving the mortadella ends exposed.
- Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, spaced 1 inch apart. Brush each roll with egg and top with a good pinch of Gruyere. Bake until golden brown and puffed, 25 minutes.
- Serve warm, with mustard if desired.
