Mini Filo Canape Cases

Great for holding all kinds of sweet and savoury treats. Guacamole, pea puree, smoked mackerel pate, coronation chicken, prawn cocktail... They keep in a tin for a few days, so you can make them ahead.

Pack of frozen filo, defrosted and unrolled - keep moist under a damp cloth.
melted butter - melt in batches of 25g in the microwave as you need it.

1. Take a sheet of filo, cut it into roughly 4cm squares. It doesn't matter if they're a bit uneven; it all adds to the charm!
2. Grease a mini muffin pan.
3. Brush 3 squares with butter, lay the first in the base of the pan, then put the next on top rotated slightly, them the next rotated a bit more, so you get interesting spikes.
4. Press into the pan.
5. Repeat until the pan is full, then bake at 150C for around 5 minutes, until they are golden.
6. Leave to cool.
