Preparation time
Cooking time
Ingredients
500g pumpkin
500g sweet potato
2 medium carrots
500g ricotta
50g grated parmesan
salt and freshly ground black pepper
50g butter
8 sheets filo pastry
poppy seeds
Method
Preheat oven to 180° C
Peel and grate the pumpkin, sweet potato and carrots
Squeeze the grated vegetables well to remove excess liquid
Place in a large mixing bowl and add the ricotta and parmesan
Season with salt and pepper and mix well
Melt the butter in a saucepan
Cut the sheets of filo into 2, lengthwise
Cover them with a slightly damp cloth while working to stop the pastry from drying out and breaking
Place 2 sheets of pastry onto a work surface and brush them with the melted butter
Divide the vegetable mix into 8 portions and place 1 into the bottom corner of one of the sheets
Fold the end of the pastry up to make a triangle that covers the filling
Continue to fold the pastry up, keeping the triangle shape, and then repeat with the second sheet of pastry
Brush the pastry with more butter, sprinkle over some poppy seeds and place onto an oven tray that has been brushed with melted butter
Continue to fold pastries until all the mix has been used
Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown
Serve with a green salad dressed with a pesto flavoured salad dressing
Pastries can be cooked ahead of time and reheated as needed
They can also be frozen uncooked
