"Crisp and savory, cheesy and full of rich umami goodness. These mushroom, ham and cheese pinwheels come together quickly and are a sure hit. Inspired by my mother’s stuffed pancake recipe, this is what finger food dreams are made of. Sautéed mushrooms, ham, nutty Gruyère and parsley are laid out and rolled in puff pastry, then baked crisp in the oven. If you can’t get Gruyère, another Swiss alpine cheese like Emmental would work well here too. Feel free to substitute in alternate mushrooms if you can’t get buttons."

Step 1/4
- 50 g button mushrooms
- 24 g ham

Preheat your oven to 220°C/428°F. Meanwhile, clean mushrooms and finely chop in a food processor or with a knife. Dice ham and grate the Gruyère. Beat the egg in a bowl.
Step 2/4
- ⅛ tbsp butter
- 2 g parsley

Mix mushroom-ham mixture with crème fraîche, most of the Gruyère, nutmeg and the parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Spread filling mixture on the puff pastry to form an even layer. Cut pastry into strips approx. 2-3 cm/0.8–1.2 in. wide.
