Blaze
is a tasty crumpet
They were really nice. The taste definitely isn't like pastry, but it did remind of pastry as I was eating it. The outside went crispy but the inside was still like mashed potato, which I'm fine with as I really like soggy pastry anyway!
I used 150g of instant potato, a pinch of garlic powder, about a teaspoon of onion powder, salt and black pepper plus 300ml water to mix it. I put it in the freezer for a bit so it was easier to work with and baked them for 25 minutes at 200c. Next time I'd probably give them 10 minutes more as long as they don't burn. I baked a test piece the same thickness of the pastry which was done enough.
I didn't have an egg to do an egg wash, but they went brown without it which might have been down to spraying them with Frylight. That made two giant pasties. Quark definitely isn't cheesy enough by itself, the filling was similar to spinach and ricotta. Next time I might use cottage cheese.
