Sophie's creamy pea and asparagus envelopes
Pea and asparagus is one of my favourites. Together they are a great flavour and I'm really glad I discovered this great easy homemade meal.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Chop your vegetables and boil in your stock for approximately 10-15 minutes, or until soft.
* Step 2
Drain, and blend on a pulse setting - you can choose to make it smooth if you wish, but I like to keep a few bits of veg bigger.
* Step 3
Add your cream cheese/quark, garlic and salt. Taste test and add more if you feel it needs it.
* Step 4
In another bowl, mix your egg and corn flour.
* Step 5
Take a spring roll wrapper and cut into quarters. Stick two of your quarters together using egg mixture. Add a layer of egg mixture to the edges of your squares.
* Step 6
Add a spoonful of mix to the centre of your squares, and fold in half so you are left with triangles with your mix sealed in the middle.
* Step 7
On top of the lump mixture, add a layer of egg mixture. Fold in either the left or right corner.
* Step 8
Add some more egg mix into that, and fold the other corner in.
* Step 9
Put egg mixture all over the top and fold the top corner down. Voila! you have an envelope.
* Step 10
Repeat until you have enough envelopes, and allow egg to dry.
* Step 11
Now, you can either boil them in salted water for 1 minute like I did, or steam them for 5-7 minutes (I don't have a steamer, but this is the "proper"way to do it).
* Step 12
Serve however you like! I have mine with a little olive oil, sea salt and parmesan, but it would be great with a tomato sauce too.
