Place 1 tablespoon of the onion, spinach and feta mixture at one end of each dough strip. Fold the end of the strip over the filling so that it forms a triangle. Continue folding the strip in triangles until a small, triangular stuffed pastry remains. Brush with unsalted butter. Repeat with remaining phyllo dough.

Steps:

• Begin by chopping the red pepper finely and leaving to drain on kitchen paper
• Next, finely dice salad onion
• Mix mayonnaise with paprika and dijon mustard
• Grate the cheddar cheese and Red Leicester cheese finely, then toss together in a bowl - use your hands, it's easy this way
• Add in the pepper & onion and mix again with your hands
• Finally, stir in the mayonnaise using a metal spoon
• Cover and chill until ready to use
• Cut the crusts from the bread
• Cut one of the slices of bread in half - we will only cut 1 sandwich from this slice
• Lay 5 of the full-sized slices out, along with one of the smaller pieces of bread
• Stir the filling briefly and spoon a generous amount onto each slice of laid out bread, spreading it out using a blunt knife
• Top each slice with another piece of bread of equal size
• Cut into slices - my bread allowed 3 sandwiches to be cut from each large piece of bread and just one from the smaller sandwich. In total, you should cut 16 small sandwiches
• Cover until ready to serve and consume as soon as possible (within the hour to avoid the bread drying out)

(Keep remaining phyllo covered with a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) Cut layered sheets into three 14x3-in. strips., Place a rounded teaspoonful of filling on lower corner of each strip. Fold dough over filling, forming a triangle. Fold triangle up, then fold triangle over, forming another triangle. Continue folding, like a flag, until you come to the end of the strip., Spritz end of dough with spray and press onto triangle to seal. Turn triangle and spritz top with spray. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling., Place triangles on baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° until golden brown, 15-20 minutes. Serve warm and, if desired, with marinara sauce.

SAVOURY CHEESE - TRADITIONAL BRITISH SANDWICH FILLER

Steps:

• mix the cheeses in a bowl.
• add mayonnaise to desired creamyness (don`t be too skimpy, though!).
• Add pepper and salt, finely diced spring onion and finely diced onion in quantities that suit you.
• TIPS:
• You may omit the Red Leicester and Mozzarella Cheese and use only Cheddar or similarly strong cheese.
• This tastes best if made the day before and not served straight from the fridge.
• Can be used as filler for sandwiches and baked potato (traditional), but is also gorgeous as a dip for vegetable crudities.
