Sautéed cabbage with mushrooms, mixed with boiled eggs and walnut meat, becomes the perfect filling for a tender and flavorful pastry.

Ingredients: - 450 grams of French pastry (preferably homemade, but store-bought can also be used) - 450 grams of cabbage with dried mushrooms (prepared according to a previous recipe found on the site) - 1 tablespoon of grated lemon zest (adjustable to taste) - 2 boiled eggs - 2 tablespoons of ground walnut meat - 1 raw egg (for brushing) Preparation: 1. Preparing the Filling: Start by preparing the filling. If you don’t have ready-made cabbage with mushrooms, use sauerkraut and dried mushrooms that you have rehydrated. Sauté the cabbage with the mushrooms in a deep skillet until tender. Allow to cool, then add the diced boiled eggs, lemon zest, and ground walnut meat. Mix well to combine all ingredients. 2. Preparing the Pastry: If using store-bought pastry, take it out of the fridge 15-20 minutes before use to make it easier to handle. Roll out a sheet of pastry on a clean surface dusted with a little flour to prevent sticking. If desired, you can cut strips from the edges to use for decoration. 3. Assembling the Roll: Place the filling on a sheet of pastry, leaving a small space at the edges. Brush the edges with the beaten raw egg to help seal the pastry. Then, cover with another sheet of pastry, pressing lightly to seal the roll well. 4. Decorating: Using a knife or a cutter, cut out stars or other shapes from the strips of pastry you previously cut. Place them on top of the roll and brush with egg for a golden and appetizing appearance. 5. Baking: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Place the roll on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 30 minutes, or until golden and crispy. 6. Serving: Allow the roll to cool slightly before cutting. You can serve it plain or alongside a warm soup, as is often customary in culinary tradition. This is a perfect combination, where the juicy roll complements the flavor of the soup perfectly. Practical Tips: - About Cabbage and Mushrooms: Make sure the cabbage is well drained to avoid moisture in the pastry. Mushrooms add a deep flavor, so choose quality mushrooms. - Pastry: If you have time, try making the French pastry at home; the taste is incomparable, and you will be proud of your achievement. - Variations: You can add feta or mozzarella cheese to the filling for a richer taste. Also, experiment with other spices, such as pepper or sweet paprika, to give a twist to the recipe. Calories and Nutritional Benefits: This roll has approximately 350 calories per serving, depending on the ingredients used.

You can adapt the recipe using vegan pastry and replacing the eggs with a plant-based substitute, such as banana puree or tofu. 3. How can I store the roll?
