Ingredients
For the filling
- 225g log Goats cheese, rind trimmed
- 30g Mascarpone
- 1/2 Lemon, grated rind and juice
- 30g Butter, melted
For the sauce
- 100g caster sugar
- 100 ml water
- 30ml dessert wine
- 225g Strawberries, sliced
- vegetable oil, for frying
- 75g icing sugar, for dusting
To decorate
- oven dried Strawberries
- Balsamic vinegar
Method
1. To make the pastry sift the flour and salt into a bowl. Rub in the butter until rough crumbs are formed. Carefully add the milk until the mixture forms a dough. Cover and chill for 20 minutes.2. Divide into four and roll into circles, cut in half.
3. To make the filing beat the goat's cheese, mascarpone and the lemon zest and juice. Divide the mixture into four balls.
4. Place a ball in one corner of each of the pastry circles and fold into triangle shapes. Seal the edges with melted butter.
5. To make the sauce, heat the sugar, water and wine until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the strawberries and then remove from the heat. Leave for 5 minutes, and then pass through a sieve to form a sauce (known as a coulis).
6. Heat the oil in a wok or deep fat fryer to 180°C. Deep-fry the parcels until golden, drain on kitchen paper and dust with icing sugar.
7. Serve the samosas on top of the coulis, and decorate with oven-dried strawberries and a little balsamic vinegar.
