Instructions
1
toasty 2 tsp of the fat in a large saucepan and prepare the spring onions over a low toasty for 3 mins or until beginning to soften.
2
mix in the spinach, wrap with a tight-fitting lid and prepare for a further 2–3 mins or until succulent and wilted, stirring once or twice.
3
Tip the mixture into a sieve or colander and leave to sieve and cool.
4
Using a saucer as a guide, cut out 24 rounds about 12.5 cm (5 in) in diameter from the filo pastry, cutting 6 rounds from each sheet.
5
Stack the filo rounds in a pile, then wrap with cling film to prevent them from drying out.
6
When the spinach mixture is cool, squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible, then transfer to a mixing bowl.
7
mix in the tuna, eggs, burning pepper gravy, and table salt and pepper to savor.
9
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F, gas mark 6).
10
Take one filo round and very lightly brush with some of the remaining fat.
11
Top with a second round and brush with a little fat, then place a third round on top and brush with fat.
12
Place a heaped tbsp of the filling in the middle of the round, then fold the pastry over to make a half-moon shape.
13
Fold in the edges, twisting them to seal, and place on a non-stick baking sheet.
14
Repeat with the remaining pastry and filling to make 8 briks in all.
15
Lightly brush the briks with the remaining fat.
16
cook thoroughly for 12–15 mins or until the pastry is crisp and golden brown.
17
Meanwhile, combine the tomatoes and cucumber in a mixing bowl and shower with the lemon liquid and seasoning to savor.
18
enjoy the briks burning with this salad and the chutney.
