Vegetable parcels Type of dish : Nibbles
To serve : 4
Preparation : 15 min
Cooking : 4 min
Budget : Cheap
From : Spain
Difficulty : Easy
 
Ingredients :
- 1 packet filo pastry, cut into 8 strips of approx 4cm each

Filling (prepare the night before)
- 100 g onions
- 1 clove crushed garlic
- 50 g red and green peppers
- 100 g tomato
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
- 1 sprig thyme

Glaze
- 1 egg yolk, beaten with 10ml water
 
Recipe :
Cook the vegetables :
- Sauté an onion.
- Add garlic and thyme.
- When onion is translucent, add pepper and cook for 2 more minutes.
- Dice and add tomato.
- Leave over a low heat, until the vegetables become soft.

Make into parcels :
- Put a teaspoonful of filling at the end of each strip of pastry.
- Brush with egg yolk.
- Wrap pastry round filling, always folding inwards, to form a triangle shape.
- Repeat until all pastry is used.

Cook in oven until golden.


Advice :
Try making 'vegetable crisps' for a fun starter or snack : Thinly slice some beetroot, courgette, celery, carrots or any other vegetables you fancy, then arrange on an oven tray.
Cook at a very low heat for 30 minutes, by which time the vegetables will have lost their liquid and become crisp and crunchy, without any oil !
