Recipe: cheese buns



I baked these super simple cheese buns for soup, since we had a lot of cheese in home. I improvised and did not know what would come out of it, but my dad, for whom I was making this lunch (he had been in another country for 2 weeks and I wanted to cook something delicious for him) really liked them :)
The best way to eat them when they are still hot :)
This time photos are made on my phone camera, because I cooked in my parents home and did not take camera with me.

Ingredients:

- frozen puff pastry
- 1 egg
- shredded cheese

Preparation:

1) Leave puff pastry for several hours at room temperature for defrosting.
2) Stretch a little bit each leaf of the pastry in length and width and cut it along into two strips.
3) Whip egg and spread every stripe.
4) Put cheese on a strip and fold the strip so that the cheese will be inside. Turn into any form, I made hearts. If there is an unused egg left, then spread buns with it.
5) Put buns into 200 degrees preheated oven and bake for 5-7 minutes until the buns turn golden.

Recipe: pie with chicken, spinach and mushrooms



Spinach season has started! My parents summer garden is full of spinach, so I invent new dishes using spinach for every day. For example, the day before yesterday I made mashed potatoes with bacon, spinach, green beans and mushrooms (champignons). And yesterday I made his pie for dinner, yum! Remaining spinach I used for my child`s meatballs, the recipe will be later :)
Fresh spinach does not have such a strong specific smell as frozen one, but frozen spinach can also be used for this recipe. Any favorite vegetables can be added to pie. Spinach is very healthy and contains iron that we need.

Ingredients:

- 5 big mushrooms (champignons)
- 1 big onion
- fresh or frozen spinach
- 500 g of chicken breast
- sliced cheese or grated one
- 1 package of frozen puff pastry
- seasonings and oil

Preparation:

1) Leave puff pastry to defrost for several hours.
2) Cut chicken, mushrooms, peel and cut onions.
3) Heat the frying pan, add oil and fry onion, mushrooms and chicken, add ragged spinach or frozen spinach to the frying pan, fry over high heat for 5-7 minutes until the liquid begins to separate.
4) Add favorite seasonings (salt, pepper, curry, basil, oregano, cumin and others, I added Armenian mixed spices), stir, leave to cool.
5) Preheat the oven to 200 degrees, oil baking form and lay the sheets of puff pastry on the bottom, making small side edges and join sheets together. Leave one sheet, cut it into 4 strips for decoration.
6) Put chicken with vegetables on the dough. Put the cheese on top. Put pastry strips on cheese.
7) Put in the oven, when puff pastry becomes gold-brown, then take it out.

The smell is just awesome! This pie is suitable for lunch, dinner or if guests are coming by.
