Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make vol-au-vents from puff pastry? Prepare all the necessary products. Use fresh or canned champignons, in both cases it turns out very tasty. Remove the finished puff pastry from the refrigerator.

2. STEP 2

   

   Place a sheet of dough on the table, roll it out slightly if necessary. Use a special round notch to make circles of puff pastry. If there is no suitable shape, then use a glass, wine glass or small glass.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut out rings from half the circles using a mold or a glass with a smaller diameter.

4. STEP 4

   

   This way you should have an equal number of circles and rings.

5. STEP 5

   

   Wash the egg well, separate the white from the yolk, beat the white lightly. Place the circles on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Using a silicone brush, brush them with egg white.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the rings evenly on top and brush with egg white. Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven, bake at 200 degrees, “top-bottom” mode until the dough is browned. This will take about 15 minutes, depending on the capabilities of your oven.

7. STEP 7

   

   At this time, prepare the filling. If you are using fresh champignons, wash and dry with paper towels. Cut the mushrooms into thin slices or small cubes, as you prefer. Peel and rinse the onion and garlic (if using). Chop them finely.

8. STEP 8

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan and lightly fry the onion. Add the champignons and garlic, reduce the flame slightly and, stirring, fry everything until the mushrooms have an appetizing golden hue. It will take about 10 minutes, maybe a little less. Add salt to taste.

9. STEP 9

   

   Add flour, stirring continuously, fry for a few seconds.

10. STEP 10

    

    Add sour cream to the mushrooms, stir and cook until thickened.

11. STEP 11

    

    If desired, at this stage you can add finely chopped dill or green young onions to the filling.

12. STEP 12

    

    Remove the finished vol-au-vents from the oven.

13. STEP 13

    

    Using a sharp thin knife, cut out circles inside the baked goods; this can be done without much difficulty.

14. STEP 14

    

    Fill the vol-au-vents with mushroom filling.

15. STEP 15

    

    Sprinkle the puff vol-au-vents with allspice or ground black pepper and garnish with herbs. Done, ready to serve!

An interesting idea, especially for a holiday table - beautiful, unusual and tasty. I really love puff pastry; it makes a lot of delicious dishes, but I cook mostly sweet ones. And in this recipe, if you experiment with the filling, you can cook it not only with mushrooms, but also, for example, with chicken, I think it will also turn out very tasty. Thank you for this recipe, I will definitely try it.
