Ground Turkey Canapes
For the fourth day of the marathon, I made turkey canapes with mini fillo sheets. These mini bites disappear in minutes as soon as you serve. I used ground turkey for the filling but the filling can be substituted with any vegetable filling. Potato curry or mixed vegetable curry are a very good veg alternatives to ground turkey.
Today, I will be sharing the step by step pictures for the preparation of the canapes. As I have mentioned in my previous posts, I will update the recipe later, once the marathon is over. And also, I will share the recipe for the ground turkey filling in a separate post, as this turkey filling can be used to make curry puffs, turkey quesadillas, turkey wraps and can also be served as a curry with rice.
Total Time: 18 minutes
Preparation: 10 minutes
Baking Time: 8 minutes
Yields: 15
Ingredients:
- 1 box Mini Fillo Shells
- 1/3 – ½ cup Ground Turkey Curry
- ¼ (little less) Onions chopped

Preparation:
- Thaw the shells as per the instructions on the box.
- I used Mexican blend cheese but one can use any cheese
- Prepare the curry and chop onions. Take these and the cheese in small bowls to fill the shells.
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Arrange the shells on a baking sheet lined with an aluminum foil.
- Fill each shell with ½ – ¾ tsp. of turkey curry or filling.
- Sprinkle approximately ¼ tsp. on onions on the filling.
- Top the shells with ¼ tsp. of cheese. Add less/more as per your liking.
- Place the tray in a pre-heated oven.
- Bake for 8 minutes or until cheese melts.
- When the cheese melts, remove from oven and serve hot.
Variations:
- I have used ground turkey for the filling but it can substitute with potato or mixed vegetable curry.
