Favourite Weekend Puff Pastry Tray Bake

Recipe by Caroline Cary

This is one of my absolute favourites and something you can whip up in no time for a quick lunch at home or when visitors arrive unexpectedly. I always keep a couple of rolls of puff pastry in the freezer, as it means you can create something delicious with whatever you have to hand.

Simple, comforting, and effortlessly impressive, it is always a winner.

This is one of the best dishes for using what you already have. Open the fridge, see what needs using, and layer it on. It never fails. Each time you make it, it will be slightly different and that’s exactly the joy of it
