Method
-
Preheat oven to 180°C and line 3 oven trays with baking paper. Combine butter, flours, salt, cheddar and 60g of the parmesan in a food processor. Pulse until mixture comes together. Add 1⁄2 of the egg and mix until a dough forms. Turn out and roll to form a 4cm-wide log.

Combine seeds and nutmeg in a bowl, then spread out on a clean work surface. Brush outside of dough log with a little of the remaining egg, then roll in seed mixture. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm.
-
Slice log into 5mm-thick discs and arrange on prepared trays. Brush tops of discs with remaining egg and press 1 chilli slice on top of each. Sprinkle with remaining parmesan.
-
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Serve.
