Vegetable Triangles

Great for disguising vegetables from those who claim not to like them! This recipe should make approximately 20 triangles.

Vegetable Triangles

Ingredients:

1 Tbsp oil
1 cup cooked, mashed sweet potato
1/2 cup cooked, mashed pumpkin
1 potato, diced small, and boiled till tender
1/2 cup spinach, steamed with all liquid drained out
1 cup tomatoes, diced
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 free range egg
1 onion
6 sheets Filo pastry

Method:

1. Combine oil with the next five ingredients and simmer for 5 minutes until onion and tomatoes are tender.

2. Blend ricotta and egg together and slowly add to vegetable mix.

3. Simmer for 5 minutes, then take off heat. (You can now freeze the mixture if you are not ready to use straight away).

4. Arrange filo pastry into strips and place a tablespoon of mixture into the corner and fold the pastry onto itself to form triangles.

5. Bake in oven until the filo pastry browns.
