Ingredients

Method
  • 6 phyllo pastry sheets
  • 3 T olive oil
  • 1 free-range egg, beaten
  • 3 T sesame seeds
  • For the cheese paste, mash together:

  • 100 g feta, crumbled
  • 160 g Parmesan, grated

Method

Ingredients

Preheat the oven to 190°C.

Sandwich 2 sheets of phyllo pastry with olive oil. Cut in half lengthways.

Spread a third of the cheese paste on one half. Cover with the other half, pressing down to seal.

Slice into strips. Place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Brush lightly with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Repeat until you have used all the pastry.

Bake until golden and crisp – about 8 minutes, but start checking after 5 minutes to ensure they don’t overcook.
