    In summer, it’s hard to avoid zucchini – they’re on display in every supermarket and are often quite cheap. The same can’t always be said for other fruits and veggies in summer. If you want to try something different from ratatouille or simple oven-roasted veggies, you should definitely try these delicious Filo Triangles with Zucchini & Feta. These little treats are perfect as a snack between meals or for a picnic in the park!

    Gardeners will certainly be familiar with the times when zucchini (and other plants) decide to produce fruit all at the same time. In Germany, we call that, for example, »Zucchinischwemme« – an abundance of zucchini and most of the time more than you can use at once. During that time, it’s good to have as many (different) zucchini recipes as possible, so you can do something with the surplus veggies without it getting boring. After all, all that hard work in the garden shouldn’t be for nothing… ;)

    We don’t have an actual garden here, just a small raised bed on our terrace. So a surplus of fruit and veggies is rather unlikely for us. Unfortunately, you can’t get very far with a few small plants. What we can get might be enough for a salad or something similar, but unfortunately that’s about it. Nevertheless, it can’t hurt to know suitable recipes for all kinds of fruits and veggies. In summer, the weekly market has everything you can’t grow yourself, right?! ;P

    Zucchini come in different shapes and colors. The typical elongated and green zucchini is probably the best known. However, as you can see in one of the photos here, the fruits also come in a smaller, round version. Any type of zucchini can be used for this recipe. However, regular zucchini are listed in the ingredients. If you have the small, round zucchini in your garden, you can of course use several of them.

    The recipe today has been developed for the monthly »Bake Together« event with my blogger friend Andrea from Zimtkeks & Apfeltarte. Once a month we pick a theme and then bake or cook »together« – miles and miles apart from each other. I live in Berlin and Andrea on the other side of Germany. ;P Well, as you can probably guess – this month’s topic is the humble zucchini…

    It was really fun creating these triangles, but if you prefer more classic zucchini dishes, you should most definitely try our Easy & Delicious Ratatouille. Many cooks tend to prepare this classic veggie dish as a stew, but we prefer the casserole version with a little cheese crust on top. A little cheese in a recipe never hurts, right? ;P

    If you got some filo pastry left over after making this recipe, you might want to check out these recipes here as well: Our Mini Börek with Feta & Tomatoes are also great for picnics and other outdoor events where finger food is needed. If you’re looking for something a little bigger and more substantial, we recommend our Greek Spinach Pie aka. Spanakopita. Veggies and feta or Shepherd’s cheese inside filo pastry are always a good combination…

    DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

    • English
    • Deutsch

    1. Peel and finely chop the red onion and the garlic. Wash and dry the zucchini and cut it into small pieces. Wash and dry the dill and chop finely. Set aside.

    2. Heat up a large frying pan with some olive oil. Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté until soft and glossy – about 2-3 minutes. Next, add the zucchini, season with cayenne pepper, regular salt and pepper and cook the zucchini, stirring occasionally, until nicely browned and soft – takes about 15-20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool down for some time.

    3. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment and set aside. Place a sheet of filo dough on your work surface and brush with some oil – not too much though, just a thin layer. Place another filo dough sheet on top and press them together. Cut it into two strips and place about 2 tablespoons of filling on one end of a strip and fold over itself several times to create triangle packages. Brush the end of the filo dough strip with some more oil and close the package. Place the triangles on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining filo dough and filling.

    4. Brush the triangles with a little more olive oil and sprinkle them with the seasoning. Bake for about 20-22 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Take out of the oven, transfer to a wire rack, and let cool down. Serve still warm or cold.

    1. Die Zwiebel und den Knoblauch schälen und fein hacken. Die Zucchini waschen, trocknen und in kleine Stücke schneiden. Den Dill waschen, trocknen und fein hacken. Alles zur Seite stellen.

    2. Eine große Pfanne mit etwas Olivenöl erhitzen. Die gehackte Zwiebel und den Knoblauch dazugeben und glasig andünsten – dauert etwa 2-3 Minuten. Die gewürfelte Zucchini dazugeben, mit Cayennepfeffer, Salz und Pfeffer würzen und dann etwa 15-20 Minuten anrösten. Immer wieder umrühren, damit nichts anbrennt. Die Zucchini sollte schön weich werden und Farbe bekommen haben. Vom Herd ziehen und etwas abkühlen lassen.

    3. Den Ofen auf 180°C (350°F) Ober-/Unterhitze vorheizen. Ein Backblech mit Backpapier auslegen und zur Seite stellen. Ein Blatt vom Filoteig auf die Arbeitsfläche legen und mit ein wenig Öl bestreichen – es braucht hier nur eine sehr dünne Schicht Öl. Als Nächstes ein weiteres Blatt Filoteig auflegen und beide Blätter ein wenig zusammendrücken, dann in zwei Streifen schneiden. Etwa zwei Esslöffel der Füllung auf ein Ende eines Streifens setzen und dann mehrmals umklappen, um dreieckige Päckchen zu formen. Das Ende des Streifens mit etwas zusätzlichem Öl bestreichen und das Päckchen dann verschließen. Die Dreiecke auf das vorbereitete Backblech legen und mit dem restlichen Filoteig und der Füllung den Prozess wiederholen.

    4. Die Dreiecke mit etwas Olivenöl bestreichen und dann mit der Gewürzmischung bestreuen. Die Päckchen für etwa 20–22 Minuten backen, bis sie goldbraun und knusprig sind. Aus dem Ofen nehmen und auf einem Abkühlgitter abkühlen lassen. Man kann die Päckchen warm oder kalt servieren.

    Hi, my name is Marc. I’m a graphic designer.
    I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake – for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers – and it seems they like it most of the time. ;)
