Mini tuna vol-au-vent

Looking for a different appetizer, I came to this solution. A must try!

ingredients:

– 12 mini puff pastry (vol-au-vent)
– 110 gr canned tuna in olive oil, drained
– 130 gr cream cheese (philadelphia)
– juice of 1/2 lemon
– onion, cut into small pieces
– 1/2 tablespoon ground sweet pepper (paprikapoeder, pimenton dulce)
– 1/2 tablespoon ground italian herbs
– 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
– sliced limes and capers to decorate
directions:

– preheat oven at 180 degrees

– place the mini puff pastry for 10 minutes in the oven

– prepare the filling, stir all ingredients together:
Tuna, cream cheese, lemon juice, onion, sweet pepper, italian herbs and fresh parsley

– fill the puff pastry with the mixture and serve on a nice plate with some capers and sliced limes.

I tried them also in the oven already filled with the mixture, 10 minutes 180 degrees, tasted completely different but delicious too!!! You should give it a try!!!
