Tips

  • Take the pastry out of the fridge and remove from the packaging approximately 10 minutes before you are ready to use it, as it will be easier to work with.
  • Delicious eaten hot, or cold!
  • Instead of using a tomato pasta sauce, you can use pesto, or even a good quality tomato chutney.
