Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C, and place a baking tray inside to heat up.
- Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat and fry the shiitake mushrooms for 5 mins or until golden.
- Beat the ricotta with the garlic, the lemon zest and juice and some seasoning. Unroll the ready-rolled puff pastry, reserving the paper. Cut into 4 rectangles, then arrange on the paper, leaving space between each piece. Score a 1.5cm border on each pastry piece, then spoon the ricotta mix into the centre, spreading evenly. Top with the mushrooms and a twist of black pepper, then brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg.
- Carefully transfer, on the paper, to the heated tray, then bake for 20-22 mins until risen and golden. Scatter with the flat-leaf parsley to serve.
