Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Divide the chorizo stew between the pastry rectangles, leaving a 2cm border. Beat the egg with the paprika and brush the edges of the pastry. Bring 2 opposite corners up and seal together, using a cocktail stick to secure, then transfer to a lined baking tray and brush the tops with egg. Repeat with all the pastry rectangles, then bake for 20 mins.
  2. Meanwhile, mix together the dressing ingredients. Remove the cocktail sticks from the chorizo parcels; serve alongside the watercress, scattered with the crumbled salad cheese and drizzled with the dressing.
