INGREDIENTS:

• 1/2 small red capsicum, chopped finely
• 100 g ham or 100 g salami, chopped fine
• 1/2 cup cheese, grated
• 1/4 cup pizza sauce
• 2 sheets ready rolled puff pastry

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. PREPARE THE FILLING: In a bowl, mix together the chopped ham or salami, grated cheese, and finely chopped capsicum. Ensure the ingredients are evenly combined.
2. ASSEMBLE THE PASTRY: Lay out the ready rolled puff pastry sheets on a clean work surface. Spread pizza sauce evenly onto each pastry sheet. Use the back of a spoon or a pastry brush to ensure the sauce is evenly distributed.
3. ADD THE FILLING: Sprinkle the capsicum, ham or salami, and cheese mixture evenly over the pizza sauce on each pastry sheet. Make sure the filling is spread out to cover the surface.
4. ROLL AND FOLD: Carefully roll up the pastry sheets, enclosing the filling within. Once rolled, lightly brush water along the edge of the pastry to help seal it. Gently fold the ends of the rolled pastry to secure the filling inside.
5. CUT INTO ROUNDS: Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 1-centimeter rounds. Place the rounds onto oven trays that have been lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Leave some space between each round to allow for expansion during baking.
6. BAKE TO PERFECTION: Preheat the oven to the recommended temperature. Place the trays with the pastry rounds into the oven and bake until they turn golden in color. The exact baking time may vary, so keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
7. SERVE AND ENJOY: Once baked, remove the trays from the oven and allow the pastry rounds to cool slightly. Serve them as a delicious appetizer or snack, perfect for parties, gatherings, or any occasion.
