List of Ingredients
Seafood Strudel
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 medium onion -- chopped
1/2 pound mushroom -- sliced
2 pounds cooked shrimp, scallops, crab, or lobster -- cut up
1 pound white fish, (non oily) -- sauteed&flaked
1 tablespoon parsley -- chopped
1 cup ricotta cheese
2 eggs -- beaten
salt and pepper -- to taste
8 sheets phyllo dough
8 tablespoons unsalted butter -- melted
Melt butter in a Dutch oven and saute onion and
mushrooms until all liquid is gone. The final mixture
should not be runny. Add shellfish and fish and stir.
Remove from heat and add parsley, ricotta, eggs,
salt, and pepper and mix well. Preheat oven to 400
degrees F.
Butter a large baking sheet or use a nonstick one.
Place 2 sheets of phyllo pastry on sheet and cover
the rest with a damp cloth to prevent drying. Brush
the pastry lightly with melted butter out to edges
and repeat with remaining sheets, brushing every
second one with butter. Spoon seafood mixture in
a long even shape down center of pastry; carefully
fold pastry and roll into a strudel. Tuck ends under
and brush with butter.
Reduce oven heat to 375 degrees F. and bake for
30 minutes, until top is browned. Brush top with
butter twice during baking.
Cool slightly, slice, and serve. Serves 6.Recipe
