Camembert and cranberry filo parcels
Ingredients
- 100g ready-made filo pastry
- 50g SPAR Butter, melted
- 125g SPAR Marksbury Select
- Camembert Cheese, roughly chopped
- 125g SPAR Strawberry Jam
- 50g SPAR Dried Cranberries
- handful fresh chives, to tie
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Cut the filo pastry into 10cm-square sheets. Place two sheets on top of each other, brushing each sheet with the melted butter to ensure they stick together. Place a small amount of Camembert, jam and cranberries in the centre of the double-layer square. Enclose the mixture by tying the corners up with string to form a small parcel. Brush with butter and repeat with the remaining squares.
Bake the parcels in the oven on a lined baking tray until golden brown, 5 minutes. Once baked, remove the string and carefully tie each parcel with a chive. Serve while still warm.
Notes
Cook's tip: While working with filo pastry, it is very important to cover it with cling film whenever it is not being used, to avoid it drying out.
