- 250g (8oz) filo pastry, 8-10 sheets

Step 3: FOLD THE TRIANGLES
Place 1 sheet of filo pastry on a flat surface and brush with melted butter. Top with a second pastry sheet to make 2 layers. Slice the sheet into 3 long strips. Roll the remaining pastry, this will prevent it from drying out.
Place 1 spoon of the cheese mixture in the corner of the first layered pastry strip. Fold over diagonally to form a triangle. Continue, keeping the triangular shape.
Repeat the process until you use all your ingredients.
