- Put 1 large tbsp of the vegetable mixture into the right bottom corner of the filo, make the shape of a triangle with the mixture and then carefully fold over to the outer edge of the pastry. Keep folding at least 4 times until your triangular pocket is sealed..
- Brush the top of the vegetable pocket with butter, sprinkle with sesame seeds. Repeat until you have no filling left over.
- Place on a baking tray and cook for 20 minutes. Serve with a salad of your choice .
