Ingredients
For
6
personnes
- 4 to 6 sheets of filo pastry
- 2 balls of mozzarella di Buffala PDO
- 1 bunch of basil
- 1 clove of garlic, crushed
- 2 tomatoes
- 2 teaspoons of pine nuts
- 3 tablespoons of olive oil from the Vallée des Baux-de-Provence PDO
- 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar PDO
- Salt, pepper
Tip
For these vegetarian samosas, we recommend using a full-flavoured olive oil from the Vallée des Baux-de-Provence (PDO) for its aromas of freshly cut grass, apple, almond, raw artichoke, fresh hazelnut and tomato leaf. You can also use any of these PDO olive oils: Aix-en-Provence, Nîmes, Haute-Provence, Corsica – Oliu di Corsica or Provence.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Wash the tomatoes, remove the seeds and dice them finely. Cut the mozzarella into large cubes. Finely chop the basil. Toast the pine nuts and crush them coarsely.
- In a mixing bowl, mix all the ingredients with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- Cut the filo pastry sheets into quarters. Brush each sheet with olive oil as you go along.
- Place a spoonful of the mixture on a strip, about 4 cm from one edge; fold the edge over the filling, then fold into a triangle, from the corner towards the opposite edge until you reach the end of the strip (you will end up with a closed triangle).
- Bake the samosas in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
