Steps to make Vol au vents:
- Roll out pastry to approx ½ centimeters thick.
- Cut medium sized circles out of the pastry.
- Using the small cutter, press gently to make an indentation in the centre of cut out pastry circle, without cutting all the way through.
- Bake in preheated oven for 15-20mins at 180-200°c.. until well risen and browned.
- Leave to cool. Then gently press the centres down to crack and flatten them into a pastry cup.
- Try to fill close to the time you intend to eat them. And ensure fillings are not too wet. For example, ensure prawns have been drained of any excess water before mixing with seafood sauce.
- Here, I used fresh king prawns which had 15 minutes or so to drain in a sieve before I mixed seafood sauce into them. I filled each Vol au vent with 3 prawns each. The remainder we used tuna sweetcorn mayo as a filling with a slice of cucumber. Both were delicious!
For the vol-au-vents, cut a very thin layer off the top of each circle and use your knife to carefully hollow out a hole in each one. Fill with the creamy mushrooms and serve - you can pop the pastry lids back on, if you wish. Vol-au-Vents are also great for making sweet treats, try filling them with Strawberries and Whipped Cream.
