Puff pastry with sausage, tomatoes and cheese

2 servings

40 minutes

Layered braid with sausage, tomatoes, and cheese is a combination of simplicity in preparation and exquisite taste. The roots of the dish trace back to European cuisine, where puff pastry is traditionally used to create a crispy golden crust. The filling of fried sausage, fresh tomatoes, and melted cheese creates a harmony of flavors—salty, creamy, and slightly tangy. This dish is perfect for both a cozy breakfast and a festive table. Its unique braided shape makes it not only delicious but also aesthetically appealing, while the crispy crust complements the tender filling. It bakes in just 25 minutes, allowing you to enjoy fresh pastries in no time.

Ingredients

• Puff pastry: 250 g
• Boiled sausage: 100 g
• Tomatoes: 1 pc
• Cheese: 100 g

Cooking steps

1. Place the puff pastry (thawed at room temperature) on a floured surface and roll it out slightly.

   Required ingredients:

   • Puff pastry: 250 g

2. Cut the edges of the dough on both sides (opposite each other), leaving the middle intact (as in the photo).

3. We prepare the filling. We fry the cooked sausage (bacon or anything you like), place it in the center of our dough, spreading it vertically (leaving the cut edges) — in my case, the sausage was fried with egg.

   Required ingredients:

   • Boiled sausage: 100 g

4. We slice the tomato and place it on top of the sausage.

   Required ingredients:

   • Tomatoes: 1 piece

5. Grate the cheese and place it on top of the tomatoes.

   Required ingredients:

   • Cheese: 100 g

6. We braid the dough, alternately bringing the left and right strips (cut at the beginning) to the center of our culinary creation.

7. Bake for about 25 minutes at a temperature of 180–200 degrees.
