Making this recipe?

Cooking instructions

1. Unroll your puff pastry and cut it into two equal parts.

2. Drop 2 slices of ham on each part.

3. Cut triangles on each part. Then sprinkle with grated cheese.

4. Then roll each triangle from its base to the tip to form small croissants.

5. Brush each puff with egg yolk. Place the croissants on a silicon baking mat, and put in a preheated oven for 15-20 minutes at 430°f (220°c).

Alternative:

You can make croissants with smoked salmon and cream cheese. Philadelphia will nicely do the trick!
