Chive Pull Aparts

Chive Pull Aparts with Windy Hills Farm herbs

These pull-aparts are simply a scone dough rolled up with a savoury filling. So, as with any scones, the trick is not to handle the dough any more than is necessary (see video below). Use any filling you fancy, such as chopped herbs, ‘nduja, cheese, anchovies or tapenade, and serve alongside your favourite soup or as a snack with a glass of St Ronan’s pear cider. Once you’ve seen how easy these savoury chive pull-aparts are, try the sweet version, hazelnut & butterscotch pull-aparts.

Makes 12 pieces

Ingredients
  • 150g cold salted butter, plus extra for brushing
  • 3 cups self-raising flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1¼ cups milk
  • 1 bunch chives, chopped
Method
  1. Preheat oven to 220°C.
  2. Using the tips of your fingers, rub half the butter into the flour, leaving the remaining butter at room temperature to soften.
  3. Stir most of the milk into the flour mixture, adding a little more at a time as needed to form a soft dough, you may not need it all.
  4. Tip onto a lightly floured bench and pat into a rectangular shape.
  5. Gently roll and pat into a neat 25cm x 30cm rectangle.
  6. Combine remaining butter and chives and spread over the dough out to the edges.
  7. Roll firmly from a long side into a Swiss roll.
  8. Cut into 12 rounds and arrange, cut side up, in a single layer in a 23cm greased cake tin.
  9. Brush with a little extra melted butter and bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden, then remove from oven and set aside to cool for a few minutes.
  10. Turn out of tin and place, right side-up, onto a wire rack.
  11. Serve warm or at room temperature as an accompaniment to soup.

We made the pot-sticker dumplings and bang bang chicken – once again both exceeded our expectations. My husband keeps saying it’s better ordering this than going out to restaurants as the recipes and food quality are amazing.

The whole Be Inspired experience has helped me love cooking again. I was sick of cooking the same old things - meal time is a lot brighter thanks to you Roberta.

I loved the Fresh & Easy Chicken – simple instructions, only a few ingredients and the time factor absolutely spot on. Then came the highlight, the taste, no compromise on the enjoyment of that meal! For the time poor Fresh & Easy hits the mark indeed.

Thank you for stocking our pantry with such authentic ingredients and quality produce ... I’ve so enjoyed picking fresh leaves from the herb pots and loved listening to the chef's playlist while cooking. We really like the flexibility of cooking over a couple of days and changing the order we cook the dishes in when we want to.

I am absolutely loving these boxes! There are ingredients I have never worked with before so having the confidence to try something new is so much fun! The recipes are just amazing and the notes on what can be prep’d beforehand are a great help too. Thank you so much.

Thanks so much for the Fresh & Easy Meal, it was excellent. We regularly get another meal kit delivery – your offering is vastly superior and a similar price, so big ticks.

I'm a competent cook whose learned so much from the Recipes+Videos Packs. The recipes are yummy and Roberta’s video guidance offers so many little tips to improve flavour and organise the flow of preparation. I enjoy her warmth, sense of humour, and ability to giggle at herself when she occasionally messes up.
