1.Make the dough. Sift the flour into a large bowl. Stir in the yeast, salt
and sugar. Add the oil and enough water to make a firm dough. Knead for at
least 5 mins. Put into a polythene bag and leave to rise in a warm place
for an hour.
2.Make filling. Coarsely grate the cheeses, add flour and baking powder
then gradually stir in the mint and beaten eggs until you have a stiffish
paste.
3.Preheat the oven to 230 C Gas 8. Divide the dough into egg size peices
and roll into 4 ” discs. Put a generous tbsp of filling in the centre of
each disc and spread slightly. Pull the dough up at 4 points to make a
square. Press the corners together to seal and leave to rise.
4.Just before baking, brush with the beaten egg and sprinkle some sesame
seeds over. Bake for 12-15 mins until the cheese filling has puffed up and
the pastry is golden. Serve warm or cold.
