Method

  1. Make each of the fillings separately by mixing together all ingredients listed for each.
  2. Take the sheets of filo and cut into 4 (this should give you rectangles about 15x20cm)
  3. Place one sheet on a board and brush with melted butter, place a further sheet on top and brush again with butter.
  4. Place a spoonful of the mixture at the edge in the centre and roll up - pinch the edges to make a cracker shape - continue until you have sufficient crackers for the festive occasion!
  5. Place on a baking sheet and brush with a little more melted butter - this will make them crisp and golden
  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 190°C/375°F/gas 5 for about 15 mins until pastry is golden and crisp
  7. Finish off with fresh chives and very thin strips of red pepper for 'bows'
