Ingredients
  

  • 1 whole Camembert cheese wheel
  • 1 sheet puff pastry
  • 100 g turkey lardons halal alternative
  • 2 small potatoes
  • 1 medium onion thinly sliced
  • 1 egg yolk egg yolk
  • q.s. salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • q.s. fresh thyme optional

Equipment

  • Medium-sized pot
  • Skillet
  • Rolling pin if needed
  • Pastry brush
  • Baking tray lined with parchment paper

Method
 

  1. Boil the potatoes in salted water for about 10 minutes until fork-tender but still firm. Drain and cool slightly before cutting into small cubes.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, drizzle olive oil and cook turkey lardons and onions until golden-brown and softened. Set aside to cool briefly.
  3. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Roll out the puff pastry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place the Camembert in the center and arrange the potato-lardon-onion mix around it. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and thyme. Fold the pastry edges over and seal tightly.
  4. Brush the pastry with the egg yolk using a pastry brush for a golden finish.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the cheese is melted.

Notes

Make sure to let the Camembert reach room temperature before assembling for better melting. Serve with mixed greens or crusty bread for added balance. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days, and for longer storage, freeze individual portions tightly wrapped for up to three months.
