How to make vegetable strudel

  • Remove the stems from the Swiss chard and chop. Set aside.
  • Chop Swiss chard leaves. Set aside separately.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add oil.
  • Saute the chopped leeks for about 3 minutes.
  • Add the chopped Swiss chard stems and cook another 3 minutes.
  • Add carrots and cook another 3 minutes.
  • Add asparagus and cook until all vegetables are soft.
  • Add chopped Swiss chard leaves and cook until wilted.
  • Stir in pine nuts, nutmeg, pepper and salt.
  • Cook a couple more minutes. Turn off heat.
  • Oil a large, about 9 x 13 inch, baking pan.
  • Lay 1/4 of the filo sheets, about 3 18 x 13 inch pieces, into the bottom of the pan, brushing each layer of filo with olive oil.
  • Spread about 1/3 of the vegetable mixture on top of this first layer of filo.
  • Continue this filo filling layering until all filling if used.
  • Top with the last layer of filo, always brushing it with olive oil.
  • There should be 4 layers of filo, with 3 sheets per layer and 3 layers of filling.
  • Cover pan with foil and bake in a 375 degrees F oven for 30 minutes.
  • Remove foil and bake 10 minutes more to give the top filo layer a golden brown appearance.
  • Make sure filling is hot all the way through.
  • Sometimes for a thick strudel when the filling has been made a day in advance and refrigerated, additional baking time will be needed to heat the strudel all the way through.
  • Slices of strudel freeze very well.
