In a pan heat remaining 3 Tbsp olive oil and cook leeks and onions until soft. Add cumin and mix well.
Add leeks and onions in the pot with the cod. Add cheese, flour, pepper and stir. Let the filling cool completely.
Spoon half the cod filling lenghtwise in one puff pastry sheet. Fold the two edges and roll.
Do the same with the rest of the filling and pastry sheet.

Preheat oven to 180C.
Beat egg yolk with water in a bowl and brush the rolls.

Bake for 30-35 minutes until pastries are golden brown.
