Mini pies with olives, pepper and Mastelo cheese

April 15, 2021

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Mini pies with olives, pepper and Mastelo cheese. A dish that can be served as a side dish next to a cold glass of white wine, or even be the ideal snack during a energy consuming day.

A destination that I would love to visit someday soon is Tuscany. Of course now with the lockdown and Covid restrictions this is quite impossible. But for me cooking has been and will always be a great means of travel.

This is exactly the case with this recipe. Although it is quite simple, it managed to take me somewhere in Italy, on a large balcony overlooking vineyards. With dear friends around the table and a cold glass of fine wine.

For me the ideal size of an appetizer is one. The one when you eat only a piece you want more. And when you eat the second one you are almost full. But there is always room for a little more. So, I cut the specific rolls to a size of about 4 cm. 

If you want you can cut them a little longer. In this case, however, you will have to adjust the cooking time downwards.

May I change the filling?

If you are not a fan of olives and peppers (I do not negotiate the Mastello cow cheese, it should remain in the filling) then you can add your own favorite ingredients. So you can add whatever each season has to give you. For example, during spring try adding sautéed chopped asparagus along with Mastello cow’s cheese, and some fried bacon. It will be awesome.
