Mushroom pattice

Prep time - 20 mins + time to thaw the puff pastry sheets (2 hrs)
Cooking time - 12-15 mins
Complexity - Easy

Ingredients :-
  • Mushrooms, sliced each in half - 300 gms
  • Puff pastry sheets (easily available in frozen section of grocery stores) - 1/2
  • Green chillies - 2 
  • Salt - 1 tsp or acc to taste
  • Onion, finely chopped, small size - 1/2 cup 
  • Beaten egg white (optional) - 1/4 cup
  • Olive oil or vegetable oil - 1 tbsp
Method :-

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Heat oil in a pan on medium heat and add onion, green chillies to it. Fry onion a little, for 3 mins and add mushrooms to the pan. Cook mushroom till they are tender and release water (not more than 7 mins). Mushroom masala for the pattice is ready.

Now take the thaw pastry square and flatten it out in approx 7 to 8 inches square or until its 1/2 cm thick.



Cut this flatten sheet into your desired shapes; I usually cut it into squares.


Take one square, fill the mushroom masala in half of a piece (square) and cover it with the other half.


In the following pic, I  have shown one more idea to make your pattice a little fancy.





Now brush this roll lightly with beaten egg white (this is optional if you do not eat eggs; eggs are used to make the pattice bit glazed on the outside). Repeat this process with the remaining pastry sheets. Oil lightly a baking tray and put all the rolled sheets on tray and bake till they turn golden brown (it takes 12- 15 mins).

Pattice are ready. Enjoy them with a cup of coffee and tomato sauce.
