  • 2 leeks white and light green parts only, sliced
  • 1 cup cream cheese softened

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the leeks by thoroughly rinsing and slicing them.
  3. Sauté the leeks in a skillet over medium heat until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed leeks and salmon with cream cheese, dill, salt, and pepper.
  6. Prepare the phyllo pastry on a clean work surface, layering 4 sheets together.
  7. Cut the layered phyllo into 4-inch squares and press them into a muffin tin.
  8. Fill each phyllo cup with the salmon and leek mixture, and top with a drizzle of beaten egg.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
  10. Let the tartlets cool for a few minutes before serving.
