Description

These small Filo Triangles with Zucchini & Feta are the perfect snack for a picnic in the park or when on the go. Great flavors and nice and crunchy!


Ingredients

Scale

For the filling:
some olive oil for frying
1 medium red onion, finely chopped
1-2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 large zucchini, in small pieces
1/4 tspcayenne pepper*
salt, pepper
9 oz. (250g) shepherd’s cheese (or feta)
1-2 stalks of dill, chopped
1 medium egg

For the filo pastry triangles:
some olive oil for brushing
10 filo pastry sheets*
2-3 tbsp. everything but the bagel seasoning


Instructions

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.
