    unknown

    List of Ingredients


    1/2 cup chopped onion
    1/2 cup chopped bell pepper
    1/4 cup chopped celery
    2 cloves finely minced garlic
    1/2 pound lean ground beef
    1 tablespoon curry powder
    1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    1/4 teaspoon thyme
    3 ounces tomato paste
    1/4 cup stuffed green olives, chopped
    1 hot pepper, seeded and chopped
    1/2 cup butter
    1/2 pound phyllo dough

    Recipe

    Saute onion, green pepper, celery, garlic, and ground beef together until beef is brown. Drain. Add curry powder and saute 5 more minutes. Add seasoned salt, pepper, thyme, tomato paste, olives and hot pepper, and simmer, covered for 30 minutes. Cool. Melt butter over low heat. Unroll phyllo dough and cut into 1-1/2 inch strips. Keep dough under a damp towel so that it doesn't dry out. Take out one piece at a time and pain it with melted butter.

    Place one teaspoonful of meat mixture at end of dough strip and fold corner over. Continue folding like flag retaining triangular shape. Brush outside of triangle with butter. Repeat with remaining dough and filling. Chill puffs one hour or more covered with plastic wrap. Bake in preheated oven at 425�F for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden. These are quite spicy and good with drinks. Makes about 60, which will serve 12.
