How to make
- Prepare. Bring puff pastry sheets to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- 1. Cut the spinach into 1-inch pieces, place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, microwave for 1 minute at 600 W, and drain the water. Add canned tuna flakes (with oil) and white sauce into a pan and cook for 2 minutes over medium heat. Add spinach and continue to cook for 1 minute at medium heat.
- 2. Place Step 1 in a tray and let it cool. Widen 2 sheets of puff pastry sheets with a rolling pin to about 0.08-inch. Poke holes in puff pastry sheets with a fork. Cut it into a fish-shape. Keep the residue to make the shape of eyes and scales with it.
- 3. Lay parchment paper, then place the puff pastry sheet for a base, and thinly spread Step 1 on top. Cover with puff pastry sheets for a top, and press all of the edges with a fork to stick it together. Decorate with the eyes and scales made from the remaining pastry. Brush with egg and bake at 180°C (360°F) for 15 to 20 minutes.
- 4. Transfer to a plate and it's ready to serve.
Tips for cooking
It will be easier to handle puff pastry sheets if you take them out of the refrigerator and thaw half. For residue puff pastry sheets come out when you make fish shapes, you can use them to shape eyes, scales, or any shape you like to decorate. The baking time of the recipe is just a guide. Please adjust it according to the condition of your oven.
