Method:
1. For the puff pastry parcels, remove the vegan puff pastry from the packet and leave to rest at room temperature.
2. In the meantime, trim and wash the leeks, cut them in half and slice into fine rings.
3. Peel the red onions, cut them in half and slice into fine strips.
4. Peel the garlic, remove the central germ, then finely slice the garlic.
5. Heat a little rapeseed oil in a frying pan and briefly sauté the prepared vegetables. Season with cumin, smoked paprika, herb salt and freshly ground black pepper.
6. Line a baking tray with baking paper and place the puff pastry on top. Prick the base a few times with a fork.
7. Spread the hot mustard over the entire puff pastry base.
8. Spread the sautéed vegetables in the centre of the puff pastry base, fold the edges of the pastry over and press down firmly.
9. Sprinkle the whole thing with Piment d’Espelette, brush with a little soya cream and place immediately on the lowest shelf of the oven. Bake at 180°C for about 20 minutes.
10. To serve, cut the pastry parcel into 4 pieces and enjoy straight away.
My tips:
-
-
-
-
- Served with a tasty green salad, this makes a nutritious main course.
-
- Leeks should always be cooked briefly at a high temperature. If you blanch them, they lose their valuable nutrients.
-
- This recipe also works wonderfully with other seasonal vegetables.
- To serve as finger food, cut the pastry parcels into small squares or place the puff pastry in small ramekins.

Product description:
Leek is a member of the onion family and is packed with vitamins, minerals and fibre. It is a versatile vegetable that can be boiled, braised, steamed, grilled or finely chopped and used in raw vegetable dishes. As a general rule, the gentler the cooking method, the more of these valuable nutrients are retained in the leek.
