- Fresh ground pepper
- 2 sheets puff pastry (2 x 400)
How to
- Combine the first 8 ingredients in a bowl.
- Spread half of the filling on each sheet of puff pastry, roll up starting from the wider side of the sheet and wrap in plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for about 2 hours.
- Cut the rolls into 2 - 3 cm slices and transfer to a baking tray lined with parchment paper. A spatula is helpful at this stage to hold the filling together during transfer.

Note from Greek jar:
Florina peppers are so unique! If you can't find them where you live, you could substitute them with Romano peppers or red bell peppers.
