==Description==
Beef-stuffed pastry rolls
==Ingredients==
* ¼ cup vegetable oil
* 1 egg, beaten
* 1 small onion, chopped (¼ cup)
* 2 tbsp flat leaf parsley, chopped
* ½ lb ground beef
* 6 phyllo sheets, 12x17" each
* ½ tsp salt or to taste
* lemon wedges for serving
* ¼ tsp black pepper
==Directions==
# Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet, add the onion and stir-fry over moderate heat for 2 minutes.
# Add the beef, salt and pepper and stir-fry for 5 minutes.
# Then add the egg and parsley and fry for 1 minute more.
# Cool well.
# Take 1 phyllo sheet and spread it out flat with a short end nearest you.
# Place 2 heaping tablespoons of the beef mixture 2 inches in from the short edge.
# Fold both long sides in toward the middle, beginning with the short end roll the phyllo to shape a packet 4 inches long and 1½ inches wide.
# Repeat with all the remaining phyllo sheets and stuffing.
# Set aside.
# Put the balance of the oil in a skillet over moderate/low heat and add the rolls.
# Brown on both sides for about 3 minutes; the low heat prevents the very thin pastry sheets from burning.
# Drain the rolls on paper towels for a minute.
# Serve warm with a squeeze of lemon juice.
