Biltong and cheese twists

By Hannah Lewry
Makes 16
Easy
15 minutes
15–20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 x 250 g sheets Woolworths frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 250 g smooth cream cheese
  • 100 g Woolworths sliced biltong, chopped
  • 1 free-range egg, beaten
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • fresh thyme, to garnish

Method

1 Preheat the oven to 180°C. Roll out the pastry slightly thinner with a dusting of flour.

2 Heat the cream cheese in the microwave to make it easy to spread. Spread a thin layer all over each sheet of pastry.

3 Cut the pastry into even-sized strips, sprinkle over the chopped biltong and gently pat into pastry.

4 Twist the strips and chill for 15 minutes to cool completely. Brush with egg and season, then bake for 15–20 minutes, until puffed and golden.

All Woolies’ biltong is made using a traditional recipe and mildly spiced with coriander and cloves. Take your pick from sliced beef biltong, nibbles, snapsticks, powder and droëwors in-store and online.
