   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: Medium

4. Lightly deglaze

   Pour the 2 tbsp milk into the pan, let reduce for a few seconds to obtain a creamy texture, then remove from heat and let cool.

   Time: PT2M

5. Prepare the oil cream

   In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil with 2 tbsp milk until a homogeneous mixture is obtained.

   Time: PT2M

6. Assemble the bricks (first layer)

   On a clean surface, place a brick sheet, lightly brush the entire surface with the oil cream. Place a slice of cheese in the centre, add a tablespoon of filling, cover with another spoon of cheese, then close by folding the edges like an envelope.

8. Air fryer cooking of the bricks

   Preheat the air fryer to 180°C for 3 min. Lightly brush the top of each brick with a little olive oil. Arrange the bricks in a single layer in the basket (use parchment paper if needed) and cook 10 min, flip, then cook an additional 5‑7 min until they are golden and crispy.

   Time: PT15M

   Temperature: 180°C
