Ingredients

• • 2 sheets Filo pastry sheets
• • 150 g White cheese (low-salt)
• • 2 tablespoons Strained yoghurt
• • 1 piece Egg
• • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• • a few sprigs Parsley (finely chopped)

Directions

1. 1

   Mash the white cheese in a bowl with a fork. If the cheese is salty, soak it in warm water for 10 minutes, then drain to reduce the salt.

2. 2

   Add the strained yoghurt, finely chopped parsley and half of one egg to the mashed cheese and mix; set the other half aside for the topping.

3. 3

   Cut the filo into small strips or triangles. Place a little cheese filling at the end of each piece and roll or fold into a small roll or triangle.

4. 4

   Line a baking tray with parchment. Mix the reserved egg with a few drops of olive oil and brush over the pastries.

5. 5

   Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for about 20-25 minutes, until golden on top.

6. 6

   Take them out and let them cool; make sure they are lukewarm before serving.

7. 7

   Serve to your 2-year-old in small pieces suited to their age, seated and under supervision. If it is the first time, start with a small portion.
