Step 1

Make spinach dip: Place the spinach in a sieve over a bowl. Using the back of a spoon, press spinach to remove excess liquid. Discard the liquid. Place the spinach in a food processor with the cream cheese, sour cream and soup mix. Process until smooth. Season. Place in the fridge to chill until required.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 220C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Step 3

Cut a 22cm disc from each pastry sheet. Place 1 pastry disc on the lined tray. Place 1/2 the dip in a medium bowl (store remaining dip in fridge for another use - see notes). Stir in the parmesan and paprika. Spread the dip mixture evenly over the pastry disc, leaving a 1.5cm border. Brush the border with a little egg. Top with the remaining pastry disc and press the edges to enclose the filling.

Step 4

Use a glass to mark a 5cm circle in the centre of the pastry, pressing down gently (don't cut through the pastry). Use a sharp knife to cut the pastry into 12 wedges from the inner circle to the edge, leaving the centre intact. Slide your hand under 1 pastry wedge, then carefully lift and turn it to the left to twist. Repeat with remaining pastry wedges to create a sun shape.

Step 5

Brush the pastry with a little of the remaining egg. Bake for 20-25 mins or until golden. Serve warm or at room temperature.
