Puff pastry parcels of goats' cheese & fig relish

It may sound like an unusual pairing, but goats' cheese is delicious with fig relish and you could even make smaller versions of these for canapes

Makes: 4

What you need:

150g puff pastry
200g goats' cheese
4dsp Tracklements Fig Relish
1 whole egg
Salt

Equipment: pastry cutter 100mm

What you do:

Pre-heat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas mark 6.
Roll out the puff pastry thinly, place onto parchment paper and rest in the fridge for 10 mins. Cut the goats' cheese into 4 even ½ inch thick slices. Cut 8 circles out of the pastry. Place 4 circles onto a non stick baking tray with a slice of the goats' cheese in the middle and a spoonful of Fig Relish on top of each.
Crack the egg into a bowl and whisk well with a pinch of salt, then brush around the edge of the pastry circles. Place a second circle of puff pastry on top and carefully seal around the edges. Score cutting lines on top and brush with the egg wash. Place into the fridge for 15 mins to rest.
Bake for 12 mins.
Serve straight away.
