What to Make with Filo Dough: Try Vertuta - You Won't Be Able to Stop
If you're a fan of crispy pastries with a tender cheese filling, then this recipe is definitely for you.
Vertuti with cheese simply melt in your mouth, and according to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova , the thinnest filo dough is to thank for this.
For 3 sheets of dough, which will make 3 servings of this delicious snack, you will need:
- 100 g butter;
- 100 g hard cheese;
- 100 g cream cheese;
- 2 g sesame;
- salt and pepper – to taste.
Leave the frozen dough at room temperature for 2 hours to defrost. Don't forget to throw a damp towel over the sheets - otherwise they will dry out.
At this time, you can work on the filling, for which you need to mix soft cream cheese with grated hard cheese.
Season the cheese mixture with pepper and salt, depending on your taste.
Now you can start "assembling". To do this, grease each sheet of dough with melted butter and, stepping back a little from the edge of the long side of the sheet, lay out a third of the cheese filling.
Roll the dough into a roll (cover the sides with dough while rolling, otherwise the cheese may leak out).
All that remains is to wrap the resulting “sausage” into a snail and do the same with the remaining sheets.
The top of the vertuts is greased with the remaining oil, sprinkled with sesame seeds and baked in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 25-30 minutes.
