Individual pear strudels with blue cheese

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1.00 squeeze lemon juice
½ cup diced pears
¼ cup toasted walnuts; chopped - plus
1.00 tablespoon chopped toasted walnuts; for garnish
¼ cup maytag blue cheese; plus
1.00 tablespoon maytag blue cheese; for garnish
1 salt; to taste
1 freshly-ground white pepper; to taste
4.00 phyllo dough sheets
¼ cup butter; melted
½ cup pear puree; for sauce

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. As you cut them, squeeze a little lemon juice over pears to prevent browning. Combine pears, walnuts and blue cheese; season to taste with salt and pepper. Lay out phyllo sheet and fold in thirds like a letter, lengthwise; brush surface with melted butter. Mound ¼ of cheese filling at base of folded phyllo sheet and roll up like an eggroll, pinching ends closed to prevent filling from leaking. Brush top with butter and transfer to a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling. Bake 12 minutes, until golden and lightly crisped. Serve sprinkled with extra walnuts and blue cheese, with a spoonful of pear puree. This recipe yields 4 servings.
