AUTUMN SPINACH-CARROT STRUNDL

2 Tbsp olive oil

1 large onion, cut into rings

½ cube soup broth

1 cup cottage cheese (1% fat)

½ cup sunflower seeds

1 (spelt) filo pastry (Dinkel Blätterteig)

1 egg, whisked

 

Preheat oven to 180 °C. In a pot heat oil and fry onion and ½ of the garlic until starting to brown. Add carrots, cover and cook until tender. Add spinach, a bit of water, broth cube and cook until tender about 10 minutes. Add cheese and continue cooking without covering for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally. The liquid should be as little as possible. Set aside and let cool. Mix in sunflour seeds and spread on one long side of the filo pastry. Roll up into a Strudl on a lined baking sheet and brush with whisked egg. Bake for 30 minutes or until brown.
