Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 200 grams Feta cheese
- 100 grams Ricotta cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 clove Garlic clove
- 1 Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, crumble the feta cheese and combine it with the ricotta cheese.
Finely chop the dill, parsley, and garlic. Add them to the cheese mixture and stir to combine.
Season the mixture with black pepper and mix well.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the puff pastry sheets to smooth any creases. Cut each sheet into 8 equal squares, for a total of 16 squares.
Place a small spoonful of the cheese mixture in the center of each square. Be careful not to overfill.
Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle, then press the edges firmly with a fork to seal.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Brush the top of each puff with the egg wash to ensure a golden color when baked.
Transfer the puffs to the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the puffs are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the puffs from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
