📖 Recette
Cheesy beef samosa
Ingredients
- 10 fillo pastry sheets also called phyllo dough
- 10.5 oz ground meat
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons ground paprika
- 1 tablespoon ground coriander
- 1 pinch Cayenne pepper
- ¾ cups cream cheese
- 4 teaspoons butter
- fine salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Finely chop the garlic and onion and sauté in a hot frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil until golden brown.
- Add the minced meat, cumin, paprika, ground cilantro, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper. Leave to cook, then remove from the heat and leave to cool on a plate (important to avoid soaking the fillo pastry sheets).
- Take one fillo pastry sheet and place a clean, damp kitchen towel over the others to prevent them from drying out (filo sheets dry extremely quickly). Preheat your oven to 410°F/210°C in natural convection/static heat mode, high and low. Lay the fillo pastry sheet on your work surface and cut it into four equal strips. Place the first two strips one on top of the other, with a little filling on the bottom right. Fold one corner of the strip over the filling to form a triangle (see process shots if necessary). Continue folding the triangle along the strip until you reach the end. Close the triangle, tucking the remaining fillo inside.
- Repeat the process with the other two strips, then with all the fillo pastry sheets.
- Place the triangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with melted butter and bake for 10 minutes. Enjoy!
