Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. In a small bowl, mix the chopped green onions, finely chopped garlic, and ground nutmeg together.

  6. Arrange the pieces on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them for expansion.
  7. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Note

Nutmeg is a key flavor enhancer here; use freshly grated if possible for the best aroma.

Keep an eye on the pastry towards the end of baking to prevent burning, as sugar content in onions can cause quick browning.

For a richer flavor, you can brush the top with a little olive oil before baking.

Serve immediately while hot and crispy for the best texture.

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days; reheat in the oven to restore crispiness.
