Veggie Pastry Rolls - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 pkg (16 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed
    2 large carrots, peeled, coarsely grated
    2/3 cup ricotta cheese
    1 1/2 cups soft fresh breadcrumbs
    2 None eggs, at room temperature
    1 None onion, finely grated
    1/2 cup grated Cheddar cheese
    3 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
    1/3 cup pepitas (shelled pumpkin seeds)
    None None Store-bought tomato salsa, to serve
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 425\u00b0F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
    Using hands, squeeze excess liquid from spinach. Place in a bowl. Add carrots, ricotta, breadcrumbs, 1 egg, onion, cheese and a pinch of salt; mix well.
    Lightly whisk remaining egg in small bowel; set aside. Cut each pastry sheet in half to form 2 rectangles.
    For each roll, place 1/6 of spinach mixture at a short edge of pastry, leaving a 1/2 inch border. Roll up to enclose spinach mixture, keeping ends open. Place, seam side down, on prepared pan. Repeat to make 6 rolls. Brush tops with whisked egg. Sprinkle with pepitas.
    Bake 20-25 mins, or until golden and puffed. Cool in pan on wire rack for 10 mins. Serve with salsa.
