• brush each sheets with a beaten egg and then sprinkle with herbs & cheese mix
• top each of pastry sheet with another remaining pastry sheet, gently pressing down so that they stick together
• cut the sheets into 4 boxes. then cut them again into 6 lines. using both hands twist each strip from the two ends. for better effect the twist should not be perfect and slightly loose.
