- Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 7/ 220 C/ 425 F.
- Roll out the pastry into a rectangle and cut out 6 rectangles; about 5 x 3 inches (13 x 8 cm) - this will be a little thicker than you usually roll.
- Mix the egg yolk with the saffron and paint each pastry shape.
- Using a sharp-pointed knife, make an even criss-cross pattern on the top of each.
- Bake on a lightly wetted tray in the preheated oven for 10-15 min till very well risen and cooked through.
- Cold a little , split carefully in two, remove any uncooked pastry and return to the turned-off, cooling oven to dry out.
- Cook the sliced leek over a gentle heat in the cream till well softened but still rather green.
- Liquidise and then strain through a fine sieve.
- Season and keep hot.
- If you are using mussels or possibly cockles, neither should have been bathed in vinegar and both should be rinsed well to remove any remaining grains of sand.
- Heat sufficient butter in a pan to coat the seafood, with a little wine or possibly vermouth if used.
- Toss the seafood in this just long sufficient to hot through. (Those with a taste for the earth rather than the sea might also sprinkle in a little finely minced garlic.)
- Put the bottom of each reheated pastry sandwich in the middle of a hot plate and pile on the seafood.
- Sandwich with the pastry tops.
- Now spoon the hot leek cream around the pastry.
- Sprinkle a little minced parsley on the sauce and serve at once.
