*filo pastry sheets *mince meat – if cooking for veggis check its not made with suet! *milk, water, egg or chosen – glaze/binding agent *icing sugar
Cut the sheets into squares – they normally come in rectangles you can pretty much just cut in half – do all the sheets together as they are prone to falling apart. Lay a few squares of pastry so that they are making a star shape Spoon a desert spoon full of mince meat into the centre Brush water/milk around the mince meat in a largish circle on the pastry. Gather the pastry into a bundle being careful not to rip it You may have to put some binder between each layer Do not use less than 3 layers or the pacels rupture in the oven. Put them on a baking tray and bake for about 8 mins in a pre heated oven at 180 degrees C When they come out you can place them on a plate and dust with icing sugar and serve.
Alternatively if serving cold at some later date you may mix up some icing sugar with water and drzzel the icing over the parcels.
