Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¾ cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 1 pinch crushed chili flakes
  • 1 package (10-ounce) frozen chopped spinach thawed and squeezed of extra water
  • 1 can (14-ounce) artichoke hearts drained and roughly chopped
  • 5 ounces grated Gruyère, Comte, or Emmentaler cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano or pecorino Romano cheese
  • Kosher salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 package (17.3 to 18.3-ounce) frozen puff pastry thawed
  • 1 large egg

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Skillet
  • mixing bowl
  • baking sheets
  • parchment paper
  • Pastry brush

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF and line 2 to 3 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and chili flakes. Cook until softened and translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool.
  3. In a mixing bowl, add spinach and artichokes, then stir in Gruyère and Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Unfold one puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Lightly flour both sides if wet or sticky. Top with half the vegetable-cheese mixture, leaving a ½-inch border.
  5. In a small bowl, beat egg with 1 tablespoon water. Brush the furthest edge with egg wash. Roll up pastry, jelly-roll-style, sealing the roll with the egg wash edge.
  6. Repeat with the other puff pastry sheet and remaining filling.
  7. Cut each roll into ½-to-¾-inch-thick slices. Lay slices flat 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. Lightly brush with egg wash.
  8. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden, rotating sheets halfway through.
  9. Serve warm or at room temperature.
