Shrimp And Ricotta Filled Turnovers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, fold together the ricotta, confectioners' sugar, egg yolk, vanilla, cinnamon, and cloves.
• Cut the 16 phyllo sheets lengthwise into 4 1/2-inch-wide strips. Cover with a barely damp towel while you work.
• Set a strip on a work surface, with the long side facing you, and brush the entire strip with melted butter. Sprinkle evenly with granulated sugar, then top with another strip.
• Brush the top with butter. Top with 1 tablespoon of the ricotta filling and 1 tablespoon of the cherries in the center about 1 inch from the left-side end. Gently pull the top left corner down, over the filling, to meet the bottom edge and form a triangle. Butter the top of the triangle.
• Now, gently grab the bottom left corner and lift it up to meet the top edge and wrap the triangle one more time.
• Brush the top with butter. Continue to fold the corners, as you would fold a flag, buttering every dry surface, until the sheet is completely folded into a large triangle. Transfer to 1 of the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining phyllo, butter, sugar and filling.
• Sprinkle the turnovers with granulated sugar. With a sharp paring knife, cut a small slit in the top of each turnover, taking care not to pierce through to the other side. Bake until puffed and deep golden brown, about 25 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Drizzle with honey to serve, if you like.

Steps:

• Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and add the canola oil.
• Stir in the celery and peppers; cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Add the green onions, hot sauce, and salt; cook and stir until onions are wilted, about 3 minutes.
• Stir the flour, shrimp, ricotta cheese, and milk into the pepper mixture; cook and stir until the shrimp turn pink, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and cool.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Melt 1/2 cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
• Remove from heat and keep warm.
• Stack two sheets of phyllo on top of each other, and cut into 3 strips about 3 inches by 12 inches.
• Brush the top of each strip with melted butter, and place a teaspoon of the shrimp mixture at one end.
• Fold phyllo dough over the filling, working back and forth from side to side to make a triangle.
• Seal the end closed with a little water or butter.
• Place triangle on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets and filling.
• Bake in preheated oven until tops are golden brown and flaky, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Cool on a wire rack.
