Preparation
-
Prepare the stuffing: Pour the plant-based alternative into a bowl, add the fresh goat cheese along with the confit tomatoes cut into small pieces, and mash everything together with a fork.
-
Season the mixture: Add the finely chopped fresh mint, salt, and pepper, and mix again until the mixture reaches a fairly thick consistency.
-
Preheat the oven: Turn on the equipment and let the temperature stabilize at 180°C at a uniform temperature.
-
Cut the bases: Unfold a sheet of brick pastry and carefully cut it into four equal parts.
-
Portioning the dough: Take the equivalent of a good teaspoon of the cheese mixture and place it right on the rounded edge of each quarter of a sheet of brick pastry.
-
Shape and seal: Fold the sides toward the center and roll the brick pastry sheet tightly into a cylinder; seal the end by brushing it with a little beaten egg yolk.
-
Bake the rolls: Place all the pieces on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes until it reaches the desired golden, crispy texture before serving.
«Organic goat cheese provides high-quality protein and easily absorbed calcium, which are essential for maintaining bone density and spinal health. In addition, fresh mint stimulates the production of digestive enzymes, preventing bloating, which often shifts the center of gravity and impairs proper posture.» — Dr. Marc Bony, Doctor of Chiropractic.
