Handy Tips
Tip:
Pastry cups can be prepared a day ahead and stored in an airtight container. Warm in oven for 5 minutes, before filling.
Method
- Brush each pastry sheet with butter and cut into 4 rectangles. Scrunch each individual filo rectangle and press tightly into the base of a 12 hole non stick mini muffin pan. Make a small indent in each pastry cup. Drizzle any remaining butter over scrunched filo.
- Place tomatoes on a paper lined baking tray and spray with oil. Sprinkle with seasonings.
- Bake pastry and tomatoes at 200oC for 10 minutes or until pastry is golden and crisp and tomatoes are softened. Remove and allow to cool for 5 minutes before removing pastry from pans and cooling on a wire rack.
- Top each pastry case with Persian Fetta and a wedge of tomato. Drizzle with remaining oil. Garnish with basil and serve.
