Turnovers are a wonderful addition to your hors d'oeuvres repertoire. Ours, filled with mellow Swiss chard, cheese, and bitter dandelion greens, have an earthy flavor and crisp exterior. Prep and Cook Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1 medium onion, diced |
3 cloves garlic, minced |
1 bunch swiss chard (ribs and stems discarded), coarsely chopped |
1 bunch dandelion greens (stems discarded), chopped |
1/2 cup grated parmesan |
1/4 cup whole-milk ricotta |
1 egg |
1/2 teaspoon each salt and freshly ground black pepper |
1/2 cup butter |
7 sheets phyllo, thawed |
Directions:
1. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat; add olive oil. Add onion and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook 2 minutes more.
2. Add Swiss chard and dandelion greens to pan in large handfuls and cook, stirring, until any liquid is evaporated. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and stir in parmesan, ricotta, egg, salt, and pepper.
3. Preheat oven to 350°. Melt butter in a small saucepan. Unroll phyllo and cover with a moist towel. Working with 1 sheet of phyllo at a time, arrange sheet so a short side is facing you. Cut sheet lengthwise into three even strips and brush each strip liberally with butter. Place a heaping tbsp. of greens at the bottom of each strip of phyllo, slightly off center. Fold the dough to make a triangle, then continue folding and turning (like you are folding a flag) to make the turnover. Brush top with butter and put on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining phyllo, greens, and butter. Bake finished turnovers until puffed and brown, about 30 minutes. Serve hot.
