Taste and adjust seasoning. Remove from the heat and allow to cool a bit whilst preparing the pastry.step 4
Use individual loose bottom tart tins or one larger one. Cut the filo to be larger than the tin size. Don’t worry about it being bigger as it will all fold in to create a crispy top.step 5
Butter the tin and brush melted butter over each layer of filo, pushing into the edges of the tin to create a nice space for the filling. Three layers are recommended, but four are also good.step 6
Add the filling. Top with the pumpkin seeds or walnuts. Dot with the goats cheese.step 7
Fold in the filo edges using the melted butter to create a top and add any leftover pastry to cover any gaps and seal the tarts.step 8
