2 tbsp: Oil,
2: Leeks, thinly sliced
12 ounce: Puff Pastry,

spinach and cook for 1 minute. Set aside to cool.

Roll out the remaining pastry to a round, large enough to fit over

by marking with a sharp knife, taking care not to cut right through
the pastry. Pierce a hole in the top to allow steam to escape.
Chill for 30 minutes.
Set oven to 220C, 425F, Gas 7. Brush pastry with beaten egg to glaze.
Bake for about 20 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Serve hot or
cold with a salad.
