Tuna & Sweetcorn Slice
Ingredients
320g pack ready-rolled puff pastry
185g can tuna in spring water, drained and flaked
325g can sweetcorn , drained
3 tbsp crème fraîche
50g cheddar , grated
a few chives , snipped to 1cm lengths
Method
Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/ gas 7. Lay the pastry out on a baking sheet. Pinch up the edges to form a border, pressing firmly into the corners. Prick the centre all over with a fork and pop in the oven for 10-15 mins.
Meanwhile, mix the tuna and sweetcorn in a bowl and season.
Remove the pastry from the oven, pressing the centre down with the back of a fork, as it will have puffed up a bit. Spread the crème fraîche across centre, spoon the tuna mix on top, then sprinkle over the cheese. Bake for 10-15 mins more, until golden, puffed up and cooked though. Sprinkle with chives and cut into quarters.
I put peas and onion in with the tuna and sweetcorn mixture, and had it with tomato ketchup *grins* Also, the leftovers the following day, warmed up for 2 minutes in the microwave were delicious!
Mother found the creme fraiche gave her tummy ache. It also made me... windy. Next time, we'll use 2tbsp rather than 3tbsp. But there will be a next time.
