Filo Baskets
These dinky baskets are loved by children and adults alike – we challenge you to stop at just one!
Method
- 1
Heat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. To make the filling heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the prepared onion, courgettes pepper and garlic and stir-fry over a medium heat, for 5-6 minutes until just softened.
- 2
Remove from the heat and stir in the sweetcorn, sauce and heat through for 3-4 minutes over a low heat.
- 3
Cut the filo pastry into approx 12cm squares, trimming the edge of the sheets if needed. Take three squares, lightly brush with melted butter then place on top of each other at different angles. Place over a hole in the muffin tin and gently ease into the base so the points stick upright to make a basket effect. Repeat with the rest of the squares.
- 4
Place in the oven to cook for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Spoon the vegetables into the pastry cases and serve warm. Delicious!
