CHEESE FILO TRIANGLES

PREP + COOK TIME 30 MINUTES MAKES 15

1 cup (200g) cottage cheese

100g fetta, crumbled

1 egg

2 tablespoons each finely chopped fresh oregano and fresh flat-leaf parsley

15 sheets filo pastry

(see cook’s notes)

¼ cup (60ml) olive oil

1 Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan. Grease oven trays. Line with baking paper.

2 Combine cheeses, egg and herbs in medium bowl; season with pepper. 3 Brush one sheet of pasty with oil; top with two more sheets, brushing each with oil. Cut layered sheets into three strips lengthways. Place 1 level tablespoon of cheese mixture at one narrow edge of each pastry strip. Fold a corner of pastry diagonally over filling to form a triangle. Continue folding to the end of strip, retaining triangular shape. Repeat to make 15 triangles.

4 Place triangles, seam-side down, on trays; brush with a little more oil.

5 Bake triangles for 15 minutes or until browned lightly.
