Preparation

  1. Mix the flour with the egg and oil together and knead the flour for a minute until it forms a smooth dough.
  2. Place the dough in a bowl, cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  3. Chop the spring onions into 8 cm long and very thin strips. You will use these as string to tie the sacks with. Heat your deep fat oil, and fry the spring onion strips for just a few seconds to make them soft. Do not let them go brown!
  4. To make pastry sack, roll the dough until flat and 1-2mm thick.
  5. Cut the pastry into squares, 6x6 cms
  6. Chop the cheese into small cubes to approx 2 cms on each side.
  7. Place the cheese into the center of a square of pastry, pull up the edges into a sack shape and tie with one of the spring onion strips.
  8. Get the frying oil good and hot before you fry these sacks (190 degrees celsius).
  9. Fry for 1 minute. The cheese will just melt and the pastry should just be browned and they should float to the top.
  10. Serve with sweet chilli dipping sauce, this sauce is essential to the dish.
