alias_sqbrInvented by me because none of the recipes I could find were remotely what I wanted. Very approximate since I made it up as I went, do NOT trust these quantities since I suck at guessing that stuff.
Ingredients:
5 sheets of filo pasty. The ends broke off so they were a bit short :)
Oil spray
150g chicken mince
1.5 tablespoons pesto
Method:
Preheat oven to 180 degrees.
Mix chicken with pesto. Spread very thinly over filo pasty (not quite to edges), roll up.
Wrap in damp paper towel for a bit. Spray with oil, bake on baking paper for 30 minutes.
Since I can't eat cheese my pesto didn't have any, and I don't know what effect this would have. I think it would be pretty tasty though. I did various random things (ie I didn't wet it first so added some water halfway through since the outside was going too brown) so this recipe might not *quite* work as given. Also as anyone who knows anything about filo knows, I *should* have sprayed every layer with oil or butter, but that defeats the point of making my own low-fat roll. Still, it was tasty.
