2 x Garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Ginger

Recipe
• Combine the lamb, onion, garlic, cumin, ginger, paprika, cinnamon, cayenne, saffron, parsley, coriander, salt and pepper in a frying pan and cook over a medium heat, uncovered and stirring occasionally.
• Cook for about 6 minutes, or until the moisture has completely evaporated and the lamb has cooked.
• Drain off and discard the fat. Add the egg and continue to stir for about 1 minute, or until it is cooked.
• Preheat the oven to 375F.
• Cut 3 inch wide strips of filo. Brush 1 strip with melted butter and place another one on top. Brush with the butter and place a heaped teaspoon of filling at one end.
• Fold the corner in to make a triangle. Fold along the line as you would in folding a flat. Repeat with the remaining filo and filling.
• Place on a greased baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes, until golden.
• Serve immediately, warm or at room temperature.
