Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

• 2 units Garlic cloves, minced
• 200 grams Mushrooms, finely chopped
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
• 1 medium Carrot, grated
• 1 medium Zucchini, grated
• 1 cup Canned chickpeas, drained and mashed
• 1 cup Walnuts, finely chopped
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 1 unit Egg

• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, ground
• 1 unit Puff pastry sheet, thawed
• 1 tablespoon Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the chopped mushrooms, red bell pepper, grated carrot, and zucchini. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Step 4

Add the mashed chickpeas and walnuts to the skillet, stirring to combine.

Step 5

Stir in breadcrumbs, then remove the skillet from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 6

In a large bowl, mix the vegetable mixture with the egg, soy sauce, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 7

Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface if needed, and spread the vegetable filling along one edge, leaving a border of about 1 inch.

Step 8

Carefully roll the pastry over the filling to make a log, sealing the edges and ends.

Step 9

Transfer the roll to the prepared baking sheet and brush the top with milk to ensure golden browning.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the pastry is deep golden brown.

Step 11

Allow the roll to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm as a main dish or appetizer.
