How to make a Fillo Pastry soufra
Take one sheet of Filo Pastry and place on a clean bench, the shorter edge facing you.
Brush liberally with olive oil or butter and place another sheet on top.
Then brush the top sheet with olive oil or butter.
Scatter approximately two tablespoons of the filling across the Filo Pastry. Be sure not to overfill the Fillo too much.
Place another sheet of Fillo Pastry over the filling and brush it with olive oil or butter.
Start at the bottom of the Fillo sheet, scrunching away from you to gather the Filo Pastry sheet in an accordion like fashion.
Pick up the folded sheet and place in the centre of the baking tray.
Begin turning it onto itself to form the centre of the spiral.
Repeat with the remaining sheets and filling, adding to the outside of the centre spiral until the tray is full.
Brush with olive oil and cook for 35-40 mins until golden brown.
Allow the soufra to cool for 10 mins in the baking tray before serving.
