Shrimp Phyllo Appetizers (recipes)


Makes 20



½ cup chopped green onions

3 Tbsp. butter, melted



3 Tbsp. butter, melted

¼ cup flour

1½ cups milk

¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese

salt and white pepper, to taste

¼ cup dry sherry



½ lb. cooked shrimp, chopped



8 phyllo leaves

¼ lb. butter, melted



Sauté onions in the butter over medium heat until liquid is evaporated, about 8 minutes. Cool.



Put the next 3 Tbsp. butter in a saucepan over low heat. Stir in flour; cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is smooth and bubbly. Stir in milk gradually. Heat to boiling; boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in cheese, salt, white pepper and sherry.



Stir the onion mixture and the cooked shrimp into the cheese sauce; cool.



Cut the phyllo leaves into 5 strips, butter. Place a second sheet on top and butter. Place a cylinder of filling diagonally on each strip. Fold over until all phyllo is used. Fold ends to secure.



Bake 400° for about 15 minutes, or until brown.



If made in advance to freeze, do so before baking.
