INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/gas 5/fan oven 170C. Roll out the pastry
to a square about 20x20cm and 1cm thick. Cut it into 4 equal
triangular pieces. Put the pastry on a baking sheet, brush the top of
each piece with the egg yolk and mark a criss-cross design on top with
a small knife or cocktail stick. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until it
is well risen and golden brown. Remove from the oven and leave aside
until you are ready to use it. Now make the vegetable filling. In a
small saucepan heat the butter, then put in the onion and garlic and
cook until they have softened. Throw in the mushrooms and continue to
fry until they have cooked through, which should take no more than 10
minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. The broccoli should be broken
into small florets, about the size of a thumbnail. Steam or boil until
they are just tender but still with plenty of bite. Drain on kitchen
paper, then add to the mushrooms in the pan. Now for the sauce. Heat
a small pan, pour in the white wine and wine vinegar and reduce by
half. Pour in the cream and again reduce by half. You should have
about 6 tablespoons of liquid left at this stage. Add the saffron.
Now, over a low heat, whisk in the chilled butter, bit by bit, until
it has melted and is thoroughly mixed. Do not allow this mixture to
boil or the sauce will lose its creaminess and become thin and clear.
Add the chives and parsley to the sauce, taste and season, then remove
the pan from the heat. Serve with a pastry lid. Converted by

A Message from our Provider:
“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
