If you like the key ingredients here - and we love all of them - you'll love these! I wouldn't change a thing in this recipe. I don't recall having ever made anything quite like these so thank you so much, Dreamer, for sharing this recipe, and for the wonderfully clear instructions! I halved the recipe, and two of us enjoyed these Spiced Vegetable Phyllo Parcels (I used a mild Moroccan blend of spices, so they weren't too spicy for my taste) as our main course tonight with several Middle Eastern dips. It felt like an at-home Middle Eastern Banquet. These would make superb appetisers! Made for Newest Zaar Tag.
