Pastries With Smoked Turkey And Mushrooms Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup minced mushrooms
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup minced onion
- 1/4 cup sherry
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp chopped parsley
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup grated low-fat mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp dried thyme
- 1/4 pound finely minced smoked turkey or ham, trimmed of fat
- 15 sheets filo dough
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
Directions:
- In a large skillet over medium high heat, saute mushrooms, garlic, and onion in sherry and olive oil until soft. Add parsley, feta, mozzarella, oregano, thyme, and turkey. Remove from heat.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil two 9- by 12-inch baking sheets.
- Lay filo dough on a clean, dry surface. Cut each sheet in half widthwise to make 30 smaller sheets. Stack them evenly on top of each other, and cover with a piece of plastic wrap and a slightly dampened dish towel as you do the next step.
- Butter 1 sheet and cut into 3 long strips. Lay the 3 strips on top of each other. Place about 2 tbsp of filling in the lower right section near the edge. Fold bottom right corner of filo over filling to meet left edge, creating a small triangle. Continue folding pastry, as you would a flag, until you reach the top. You will end up with a triangle-shaped pastry.
- Lightly butter top of filled triangle and place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat process until all the filling has been used.
- Bake pastries until golden (20 minutes). Serve warm.
