Parmesan & Poppy Seed Twists

Ingredients

For the pastry:
100g Juvela Gluten Free White or Fibre Mix
Pinch of salt
25g hard margarine
25g lard
1 medium egg, lightly beaten
Cold water
For the topping:
3tbsp grated parmesan
2tbsp poppy seeds
1tbsp caraway seeds

Method

  1. To make the pastry, place the Mix in a bowl and rub in the fats until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
  2. Stir in half of the egg and sufficient water to form a soft but not sticky dough.
  3. Roll out pastry into a rough rectangle (approx 10cmx20cm), approx ½ cm in thickness, and brush pastry with some of the remaining egg.
  4. Sprinkle pastry dough with parmesan, poppy seeds and caraway seeds, then lightly run the rolling pin across the top to press cheese and seeds into the pastry.
  5. Using a sharp knife, cut pastry into 12-15strips.
  6. Carefully twist each strip (by twisting each end in opposite directions!), and then place onto a baking tray.
  7. Add a little milk to remaining egg mixture and carefully brush the tops. Bake in a preheated oven (200°C/180°Fan/Gas Mark 6) for 10-15minutes until golden brown.
