Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 15-ounce container part-skim ricotta
1/4 cup (1/2 ounce) sliced almonds
1/4 cup golden raisins
1 tablespoon minced garlic, (2 to 3 cloves)
1 6-ounce onion, finely diced (1 1/2 cups)
2 medium portobello mushrooms (about 8 ounces total), stems removed and discarded, cut into 1/4-inch dice
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
12 sheets phyllo dough
Olive-oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Wrap ricotta tightly in fine cheesecloth; place in a colander over a bowl. Place a heavy bowl or cans on top; let drain, refrigerated, for 3 hours or overnight.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place almonds on a baking pan; toast until fragrant, about 6 minutes. Transfer from oven to cool, then break almonds into small pieces; set aside. Place raisins in a bowl, cover with 1/4 cup warm water, and set aside.
  • Heat a large saute pan coated with olive-oil cooking spray over medium heat. Add garlic and onion; saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook until tender and juices are released, about 3 minutes more. Add raisins, soaking liquid, salt, cinnamon, cayenne, and cumin; cook until the liquid has been absorbed. Stir in balsamic vinegar, and transfer to a medium bowl to cool. When fully cool, about 25 minutes, stir in chopped parsley.
  • Place phyllo on a dry work surface; cover with a slightly damp towel. Coat one phyllo sheet with cooking spray. Cover with a second sheet; coat with cooking spray. Place a third sheet on top; cut stack into four 4-by-12-inch strips. Place 1 tablespoon ricotta on bottom of each stack; spread into the left corner to form a small triangle. Top with 2 tablespoons mushroom mixture. Fold phyllo by bringing bottom left corner over to meet right edge of pastry. Fold triangle along strip to fully enclose filling. Place on a parchment-lined baking pan. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling. Coat triangles with cooking spray; sprinkle with reserved nuts. Bake until golden, about 40 minutes, rotating halfway through cooking. Serve.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my phyllo triangles didn't turn out very well. The dough was tough and the filling was bland.

These phyllo triangles were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them instead of frying them next time.
