Paquetitos de champiñones en masa filo

Ingredientes

• 14 ounces mushrooms (chopped very finely (pulse in a food processor))
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking (plus a few more tablespoons for brushing))
• 4 spring onions (sliced finely)
• 0.5 bunches parsley (finely chopped)
• 7 ounces spinach (wilted in a dry pan, water squeezed out & chopped finely)
• 1.5 teaspoons Italian herbs
• 5 ounces cream cheese ((I used garlic and herb flavoured))
• 8 sheets filo pastry ((I used a 13 ounce / 375 gram pack))
• salt and pepper (to taste)

Preparación

1. 1

   Pan fry the chopped mushrooms in the olive oil until cooked down and water evaporated (about 10 minutes).

2. 2

   Tip the mushrooms into a bowl, then add the onions, parsley, spinach, herbs and cream cheese. Finally, add plenty of salt and pepper, then combine well.

3. 3

   Lay a sheet of filo pastry out on a wooden board or work surface and brush all over with olive oil. Lay another sheet of pastry on top.

4. 4

   Cut into 5 strips across the width. Place about a teaspoon of mushroom mixture at one end of a strip and fold over to make a triangle (see video). Keep folding the triangle over onto itself until the strip of pastry has all been used up.

5. 5

   Repeat with the other four pastry strips, then repeat until all the mushroom mixture has been used up.

6. 6

   Place on baking sheets, brush all over with olive oil, then bake at 355F / 180C for 20 to 25 minutes until browned and crisp.
