    -          Soak the Soya bean seeds in water and leave for 6 hours, preferably overnight.

    -          Drain and rinse the seeds with clean water. Rub the seeds between your hands to de-haul it till the skin peels off (Just the same way beans is de-hauled for moi moi ).

Pour the washed seeds into a blender, Add some water and blend till smooth.

-           Place the Sieve with handle on the pot and place the pap sieve cloth within. Gently pour the blended soya bean slurry into the pap sieve. Squeeze the Liquid filtrated into the pot. The chaff can be reused by placing in the blender again with water, blending and squeezing till all the milk is extracted.

    -          Place the pot with the filtered soya milk on fire and cook on low heat for about 15-20mins till it starts to boil. While it cooks, keep stirring because it has the tendency to curdle if you don't, then Sieve once more (Hot filtration) to remove the insoluble soy pulp fiber (Okara) and leave to cool.  

     -        Add your sugar and flavor essence and mix.

Ingredients

-         2 medium sweet potatoes

-         1½ teaspoons coriander seeds

-         2 dried red chillies

    -         ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon , plus a little extra

    -         Sea salt

-         Freshly ground black pepper

-         2 spring onions , trimmed and finely chopped

-         1 large free-range egg , beaten

-         150 g butter

-         6 sheets filo pastry

-         1 red onion , finely sliced

-         1 bunch fresh watercress

-         1 bunch fresh mint , leaves picked

-         1 bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley , leaves picked

-         4 tablespoons fat-free natural yoghurt

-         3 lemons , 1 juiced, 2 cut in half

-         extra virgin olive oil

-         1 pinch ground cumin

Method

   -         Preheat your oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6. Wash the sweet potatoes and bake them, in their skins, in the preheated oven until cooked and soft. Allow to cool (leaving the oven on), then peel and mash them.

   -         Bash up 1 teaspoon of the coriander seeds and the chillies in a pestle and mortar. Stir with the cinnamon into the mashed sweet potato and season well. Fold the spring onions and beaten egg into the mashed potato.

   -         Gently melt the butter in a pan. Bash up the remaining coriander seeds. Brush a sheet of filo with some melted butter and sprinkle with a pinch of ground cinnamon and a little of the ground coriander. Cover with the second sheet, and brush and sprinkle as before. Repeat for the third sheet. With a sharp knife, cut the stacked filo sheets into two 15cm squares.

   -         Working quickly to prevent the pastry from drying, do the same with the remaining filo sheets. You should now have four squares of filo. Place a generous tablespoon of the sweet potato mixture in the centre of each square and spread out slightly. Brush the edges of each square with water and fold in half, corner to corner, to make a triangle. Press down at the edges to seal. Brush both sides of each triangle with the rest of the melted butter, place on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven until light brown - this will take about 10 minutes.

   -         Mix the red onion with the watercress, mint and parsley. Mix the yoghurt with the lemon juice, a lug of olive oil and the cumin. Dress the salad with the yoghurt dressing and serve with the hot filo briks and the lemon halves.
