Spinach and Cheese Filo Triangles aka Spanakopita Samosas
  1. MAKE THE TOFU RICOTTA. Preheat oven to 190ºC. Place all ingredients except the spinach, of the filling into a food processor. Transfer into a bowl and then stir in the spinach.

  2. CUT THE FILO PASTRY. Before unrolling your filo pastry, cut the roll into thirds.

  3. FORM YOUR TRIANGLES. To form a triangle, brush a single layer of pastry with some olive oil - it doesn't have to be fully covered, just a rough brush is fine. Place another layer on top and brush with a little more olive oil. Place a spoonful of the spinach filling at one end and top with a small pinch of shredded vegan cheese. Fold the end to form a small triangle and continue to fold up the pastry, flag-style until you have an enclosed parcel. Place on a lined baking tray. (If you want to freeze some - see my freezing tips above, they reheat so well!) Brush with a little olive oil just before baking and sprinkle on some sesame seeds and/or flakey sea salt.

  4. BAKE for around 30-40 minutes or until golden brown! Allow to cool slightly before eating because the filling gets HOT! DEVOUR
