Method
Preparing the Filling
Prepare the Escargots
If using canned escargots, rinse them under cold water and drain well. If using fresh escargots, ensure they are cleaned and pre-cooked according to package instructions.
Assembling the Pastry
Prepare the Puff Pastry
Thaw the puff pastry sheet according to package instructions. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Cut the Pastry
On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet slightly and cut it into squares large enough to wrap around each escargot.
Fill the Pastry
Place a tablespoon of the escargot filling in the center of each puff pastry square. Fold the corners of the pastry over the filling and pinch to seal.
Baking
Bake
Place the filled pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.
Serve
Remove the escargot en croute from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
