Time 55m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese
¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons milk
½ onion, finely chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
5 tablespoons butter, melted
5 12-inch square spring roll wrappers
¼ cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Mix cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, garlic, and milk together in a bowl; add onion and cilantro. Stir to combine.
  • Cut one sheet of spring roll wrapper into 3 rectangles, each about 4x12 inches. Lightly brush with melted butter. Place a heaping teaspoon of filling on the 4-inch end of the rectangle. Fold the end over the filling; pick up a corner and fold diagonally, making a triangle. Continue to fold diagonally, making a triangular packet, so the the filling doesn't come out the ends. Dab a little water on the end of the strip and seal the sambusa closed. Repeat with remaining filling and spring roll wrappers. Place on prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until crisp and golden, about 25 minutes.
