Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
- Place the passata, tomato puree and garlic granules in a small bowl and mix well.
- Unroll the pastry sheet, leaving it on the greaseproof paper packing, and place it on a work surface. Spread the tomato mixture over the pastry sheet in a thin layer, leaving a 1cm gap along one long edge.
- Sprinkle the Cheddar and Parmesan over in an even layer, leaving the 1cm gap along the long edge.
- Spread the ham over the cheese in an even layer, leaving the 1cm gap along the long edge.
- Spread the basil leaves over the ham, again leaving the gap along the long edge. Season well with salt and black pepper.
- Roll up the pastry tightly, starting with the long edge without the 1cm gap and using the greaseproof paper to help you. Keep rolling it up until you have a ‘Swiss roll’. When you have finished rolling the pastry, make sure it is seam-side down, then use a large, serrated knife (such as a bread knife) to cut it into 16 spiral-shaped slices.
- Carefully transfer the slices to the lined baking tray, leaving gaps between each, and press the seam on each to ensure a good seal.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until golden and crisp. These swirls are best served warm, with your choice of accompaniment.
