- Preparation time: 20 mins
- Cook time : 20 mins
Ingredients
-
1/4 cup (60 mL) melted butter
3 tbsp (45 mL) olive oil
9 sheets phyllo dough
2/3 cup (160 mL) leek (white part only), finely sliced, blanched and cooled
1 cup (250 mL) sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed or rehydrated and drained), finely sliced
2 tbsp (30 mL) chopped fresh oregano or basil (or a combination)
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
10 oz (300 g) Canadian Brie cheese, cut into 12 thick slices
Preparation
In a small bowl, stir together melted butter (still hot) and olive oil. Brush on 3 sheets of phyllo dough. Place another phyllo sheet on top of each sheet, brush with more butter/oil mixture and repeat, making 3 stacks of 3 sheets each. Cut each stack in half to make 6 pieces and line 6 muffin cups.
In a bowl, combine leek, sun-dried tomatoes, herbs, salt and pepper. Divide mixture evenly among phyllo cups. Top each cup with 2 slices of Canadian Brie. Close bundles by pinching dough at top, using a little melted butter if necessary to make dough stick.
For a shiny, golden finish, brush tops lightly with butter/oil mixture. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
Serve on a bed of snow-pea or alfalfa sprouts, or on a mesclun mix.
Makes 6 servings.
