75 g vegetarian cheddar cheese, grated
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg

12 sheets phyllo pastry , each measuring 16cm x 16cm

Directions:

Heat oven to 190°C
Place spinach in a pan and stir over a high heat until wilted. Strain, squeeze out as much liquid as possible, then roughly chop.
Heat oil in a frying pan, sauté shallot until softened. Add walnuts, then fry for 2-3 minutes Remove from heat, stir in spinach, cheese, nutmeg, cream and seasoning.
Mix walnut oil with butter. Brush a thin coating on a piece of pastry. Place another piece on top with corners at a different angle, brush with the butter and repeat with one more piece.
Place a spoonful of spinach mix in the centre, bring up corners of pastry and pinch in the middle to form a parcel. Repeat to make remaining parcels, then transfer to a greased baking tray.
