Steps for preparing the puff pastry strudel with zucchini and scamorza
To prepare the savory strudel, clean and thinly slice the onion or grate it with the large hole grater. Sauté it for a few minutes in a pan. Grate the zucchini with the large hole grater as well. Add them to the onion. Season with salt and pepper and cook for about ten minutes. Let cool.
Remove the puff pastry from the fridge 5 minutes before using it. Unroll it. Place the scamorza slices on top and cover with the zucchini. Using the parchment paper, roll the puff pastry into a long log. Seal the edges.
Make cuts on the roll with a knife or scissors. Brush with milk and bake in a preheated oven, at 356°F (180°C), static, for about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.
Storage
You can store the savory strudel in the fridge for two or three days.
