Instructions: Heat the oven to 180 C, 350 F, Gas Mark 4.

Put the onion into a frying pan with the vegetable cube, dissolved in 150ml ( 1/4 pint) boiling water. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Peel, core and cut the apples into 5mm pieces, add to the pan and cook with the onion for 4-5 minutes until they start to become tender. Remove from the heat, add the herbs and season. Allow to cool a little.

Drain the mozzarella, cut into small pieces then mix into the apple mixture with the Parmesan.

To make each portion, lay a sheet of filo on the work surface, lightly brush with melted butter. Place a heaped tablespoon of the filling at one end, pressing it together a little, fold the bottom short end over the filling, then fold in the sides down the length. Wrap up the filling along the length to make a secure parcel. Place on a greased baking tray. Brush the parcels with melted butter. If preferred, fold parcels into triangular shapes.

Repeat with the rest of the mixture then bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes until crisp and golden.

NOTES : These delicious crispy snacks can be eaten hot or cold.Ideal as a light meal served with salad.
