Feuilles de Brick are fine sheets of ready-made pastry that originate from Tunisia but which are now made in France. They are like a more versatile version of Filo Pastry: crispier than spring roll pastry when fried, and melt-in-the-mouth crispy when baked.
They can be folded and shaped into spring roll or samosa shapes and can be filled with spiced meats or any filling of your choice. They can also be used to make deep-fried pastries filled with spiced meats or fish, or a Tunisian spinach, cheese and egg mixture.
Delia Smith suggests layering a sheet of Feuilles de Brick with air-dried ham, grated Pecorino or Parmesan cheese and chopped rosemary. Then pre-cut the sheet into wedges and bake on a lightly greased baking tray at 180ºC for 12-15 minutes for a rich and tasty snack.
