Ingredients

  • 1 medium potato
  • 473ml cold water
  • 3 whole garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 sheet of frozen puff pastry dough, thawed and cut into 12 strips
  • 45g parmesan, grated
  • 338g mozzarella
  • 73g pepperoni
  • 28g Italian seasoning
  • 225g marinara sauce

Method

  • Wash and scrub the potato thoroughly. Pat dry and slice thinly into 1/8-inch rounds.
  • Put the sliced potatoes in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Option to add 3 crushed garlic cloves to the water to impart more flavour.
  • Par boil the potatoes for 5 minutes until they are slightly tender.
  • Thaw 1 sheet of puff pastry and roll out slightly with a rolling pin. Cut into 12 equal strips.
  • On a foiled lined tray generously sprayed with oil, sprinkle 1 tsp of parmesan and a pinch of Italian seasoning, then shingle 3-4 slices of the par-cooked potato slices with 3-4 slices of pepperoni. Top the slices with 1.5tbsp mozzarella, followed by a strip of the puff pastry. Push the edges of the pastry down onto the foil to slightly “seal” the puffs, allowing the contents to remain within the pastry.
  • Bake in a 200°c air fryer for 7-8 minutes.
  • Wait for the cheese to cool before trying to remove the puffs from the tray. Gently peel the potato pizza puffs off the foil. Serve with marinara sauce and enjoy!
