On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into a rectangle of approx. 30 x 40 cm. Brush the dough with the double cream, cut crosswise into 5 and then lengthwise into 4 strips to create rectangles. Sprinkle with the cheese, parsley and fleur de sel. Fold together the strips of dough, layer in the prepared dish. Cover and leave to rise at room temperature for a further 30 mins.
