  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/2 cup veg oil

Directions
  1. Mix the filling ingredients in a medium sized bowl.

  3. Place the three sheets of pastry on top of each other on the counter with the long side front of you.
  4. Cut in 4 equal strips from top to bottom
  5. do the same to the other 3 sheets
  6. Now you should have 24 long pieces of phyllo pastry.

  11. Finish all the sheets.
  12. Heat up the sunflower oil on the stove in a frying pan.

  14. Don't turn your back, they fry quickly and may burn:{
  15. drain on kitchen towel
