Step 1
1. Wash the broccoli and cauliflower and separate them into florets. Place in boiling salted water and cook until tender (about 15 minutes). Drain and set aside some of the cooked vegetables (skip this step if you want the filling to be completely smooth). Blend the rest with the cream cheese and carefully separated egg yolks until smooth purée forms.

6. When a delicious crust forms, the puff pastry with broccoli and cauliflower is ready. It can be served either hot or cooled. It pairs perfectly with a rich sauce made from hot cream, in which you need to dissolve moldy cheese (or regular hard cheese).
