Party Foods

Here are some simple ways to keep children (and adults) happy at the next birthday party. You can create a variety of finger foods with puff pastries, which are readily sold in supermarkets and hypermarkets. It's convenient.


A. Mini Sausage Rolls
* Roll out and cut puff pastry as per instructions on the wrapper
* Cut into 4 inch squares. Put one sausage on each square
* Fold puff pastry over and seal using the teeth of a fork
* Cut into 2, egg wash and bake at 220 degree C until pastry is puffed and golden brown

Note: Make sure oven is really hot to help pastry puff nicely during baking

B. Tuna Puffs
* Just replace the sausages with canned tuna mayonnaise

C. Sardine Puffs
* Replace the sausages with sardine (drain off sauce) mixed with some chopped bombay onions and 1 tablespoon tomato sauce

D. Ice Cream Puffs
Baked puff pastry in muffin moulds making sure the edges come up from the moulds. Cool after baking. Fill with ice cream and top with cut fresh fruits.
