Vegetable Prussiens

As a child I only knew the sweet prussiens (french) cookies. Its made from pastry dough and in some part of switzerland they are known as "pig-ears".

Filled with chopped vegetables or whatever you like you will get a spiced or even herbed versions. The first I had the change to try was about 2 years ago. So simple and till then I didn't even think of it preparing them herbed or spiced..... 

This snack or appetizer is so great and so simple. 

Go ahead and try different fillings.
