Directions
-
Chop the onion finely and soften it in a little butter or oil, then fry hard until frazzled.
-
Remove and reserve.
-
Dice the mushrooms and

fry them in the fat remaining in the pan;
-
stir and turn them as necessary to drive off most of their moisture and to concentrate flavour.
-
Mix the two vegetables together and season with plenty of salt and pepper.
-
Stir in the cumin, coriander and grated cheese.
-
When cool bind with the beaten eggs.
-
Unwrap the pastry one sheet at a time.
-
Keep the rest covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying out.
-
Cut each sheet into strips about 3 x 10 inches long and brush on one side only with melted butter.
-
Put one rounded metal teaspoonful of the mixture near the short edge of the buttery side of the first pastry strip - about 1 inch from the bottom and slightly to the left-hand side.
-
Fold the bottom right-hand corner of the pastry diagonally over the filling to make a triangle.
-
Continue folding the pastry at right angles up the whole lenghth of the strip so you end up with a neat little triangular parcel.
-
Make more little pies in the same way until all the filling is used up.
-
cook , simply
-
brush the pies all over with melted butter or oil,
-
arrange them side by side on baking trays and
-
bake at 350-375 F (180-190 C) gas mark 4/5 for about 20 minutes, until the pastry is golden and crisp.
-
It is best to turn the pies over after the first 10 minutes and brush with more butter or oil.
-
For even crisper results the pies can be deep-fried.
