Ingredients

1 package puff pastry
200 g fresh or smoked salmon
2 pieces leeks
100 g crème fraîche
1 piece onion
1 piece egg yolk
to taste salt and pepper
a little olive oil

Equipment

Oven-safe baking tray
Parchment paper
Sharp knife
Mixing bowls
Rolling pin

Method

Preheat your oven to 200°C (about 400°F) and line your baking tray with parchment paper.
Wash and thinly slice the leeks and onion. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat and sauté the onion until translucent, then add the leeks and cook gently for about 10 minutes.
Cut the salmon into small bite-sized pieces or flake if using smoked salmon.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked leeks, salmon, crème fraîche, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and spread the filling evenly in the center, leaving space around the edges. Fold over the edges to seal and use a fork to create a decorative pattern.
Brush the top with beaten egg yolk and make a few slits on top.
Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
