Details
Preparation
Step 1
Mash cheese, add finely chopped parsley and beaten egg.
Spread filo on counter, cut into 5 inch strips. Take two layers of the strips together and put two teaspoons of the filling on the two layers of the filo strip and spread a long the length and roll into a cigar shape. Wet the edge slightly to stick. Make as many of these cigars as you need. One packet of filo dough will make about two dozen.
Cover with a dish cloth and begin to fry in hot oil about six to eight at a time if pan is large perhaps a dozen at a time. Serve while hot and crisp.
Variation:
Cut filo dough into four inch wide strips, again take two layers at a time and put two teaspoons of filling on one end. Spread it as a triangle and begin to fold into triangle shapes and fry in hot oil until golden.
