Ingredients

- 1 large zucchini, diced
- 6 tbsp (90 ml) olive oil
- 2 cups (50 g) baby spinach, chopped
- 8 oil-packed kalamata olives, drained, pitted and chopped
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) sundried tomato pesto
- 3/4 cup (180 ml) steak tartare
- 8 sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed

Preparation

- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large skillet, soften the zucchini in 2 tbsp (30 ml) of the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add the spinach and olives and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the pesto and stir well. Drain the vegetables in a sieve and set aside to cool. Add to the tartare.
- On a work surface, brush a sheet of phyllo dough with some of the remaining oil. Cover with a second sheet and brush with more oil.
- Cut the dough lengthwise into three strips. Place 2 tbsp of the tartare mixture at the end of each strip of dough. Fold the dough over the filling to form a small triangle. Fold the triangle on itself several times to form a small turnover. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Place the turnovers on the baking sheet and brush with oil. Bake for about 20 minutes or until the dough is golden brown.
