 METHOD

In a large bowl, mix the spinach, spring onions, cherry tomatoes and garam masala with a grinding of pepper. 

Lay out a sheet of filo and cut it lengthways into 3 long strips.

Brush roughly with the oil - don't worry about covering the whole sheet.

Spoon tablespoons of mix onto the top of each strip and fold each over into a triangle.
