Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 4 phyllo sheets
  • 8 hot dogs
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese
  • 1 egg and a splash of milk for brushing
  • Flour paste: 1 tbsp flour mixed with about 1 tbsp water to seal the dough

Instructions
 

  • Cut each phyllo sheet in half landscape style so you end up with eight pieces. Add one hot dog and a little shredded cheese on each half, then roll it straight into a log.
    Phyllo sheets cut in half with a hot dog and shredded cheese placed at one end before rolling.
  • Brush the end with the flour paste to help it stick. Tie butcher’s twine on both ends to shape the Christmas cracker.

  • Set the crackers on a baking tray lined with parchment. Brush the tops with the egg and milk mixture. Bake at 180 °C / 350 °F for about 15 minutes, or until the colour and crispiness feel right to you. Serve warm.
