Hello from Belgium
Hi there!
My name is Julie, and i’m a girl from Belgium. In school we all have to make a dish. In my dish i have to work with we call in Belgium brickdeeg , i guess in english that means brickpaste. So i have to fill this up with a sort of puree. The problem is that when the dish is ready i always got the feeling that the brickpaste rules the dish. Got any tips?
Thanks allot! Hope you understand what i mean!
Love, Julie

Hi,
I must say I have not really used 'brickdeeg' in a dish but I have heard about it.
Brickdeeg was introduced from Noth Afrika. It looks like phyllo pastry but is less brittle and breakable. You can buy it in round slices, ready made.
I think by picking a stuffing that has a good taste of its own might prefent the pastry to rule the dish. Basicly you can fill the 'brickdeeg' with a lot of variations. I found a few nice looking recepies for you on the net, that you might want to try.

And you can also use the dough to wrap spiced srawns in, seal the dough by using egg yellow and fry them in a wok.... serve with a nice Thai chilli sauce...
Hope this will help you some more
Cheers
