Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the leeks and stock into a large pan, then cover and cook for 5-8 mins until starting to soften. Add the mushrooms, cover again and cook for 3 mins, then remove the lid and continue to cook until the juices have evaporated. Tip the veg onto a large plate to cool slightly.

  • step 2

    For each strudel, lightly brush half of each filo sheet with some olive oil. Fold the un-brushed side over to make a smaller sheet, 2 layers thick. Brush the edges with a little more oil, then spoon a quarter of the veg along one edge. Crumble over a quarter of the cheese, fold over the pastry edges, then roll up to seal in the filling.

  • step 3

    Put the strudels on a baking tray, brush with any remaining oil and scatter over the poppy seeds. Bake for 25 mins until crisp and golden brown.

A touch bland. Certainly needed more seasoning. I left some at a friend's house, normally I get really good feedback and get asked for the recipe, but I got neither 😂

Couldn't get the large filo so used regular size and got 12 parcels which were very nice. The more you dry the leeks and mushrooms out the better, took me about 30 mins to do this stage but it is worth it: wetter filling cracks the filo. Also couldn't get poppy seeds so sprinkled white sesame seeds…

Amazing...don’t be scared that there’s no seasoning, they taste and look so beautiful and are super simple to make. Really really happy! Thank you so much to whoever posted this.

Did this on Saturday evening. Easy to prepare and very tasty. Had no poppy seeds to hand so toasted some sesame seeds and used those instead.
