  1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Use a small bowl or saucer as a guide to cut eight 11.5 cm diameter discs from the pastry.
  2. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Place 4 pastry discs on the tray. Top each disc with a slice of quince paste and 3 slices of cheese, leaving a 1cm border. Brush edges with egg then top with remaining pastry discs. Press edges firmly with a fork to seal. Brush all over with egg. Cut a small slit in the top of each pastry. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes and ground black pepper. Place pastries in freezer to chill for 5 minutes. Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until puffed and golden.
  3. Meanwhile, combine the vinegar and oils in a small bow. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Combine rocket, pear and walnuts in a medium bowl, pour over dressing and toss gently to combine. Serve pastries with pear and rocket salad.
