Asparagus Pastry

I’m so happy that it’s time to eat asparagus again! Not only is it one of my favourite vegetables, it also means winter is finally over. And that’s all I’ve been dreaming of since October. Here’s a super simple asparagus pastry that works perfectly as a light lunch or part of a buffet.

I used store bought puff pastry (which is usually vegan despite the Swedish name being “butter dough”). I simply rolled the dough out, broke the hard end bits off the asparagus stalks and spread them out on the dough. Then I folded in the edges, sprinkled a little vegan cheese on top (I like @valiosverige Oddlygood Veggie grated) and baked it in the oven at 200 C for just under 20 minutes. The last few minutes I added some sunflower seeds on top. Pine nuts or other seeds would work as well.
