- Place the Valençay cubes and grated Bouton de Culotte cheeses into a bowl.
- Finely chop the chervil and place half in a pan with the crème fraîche
- Season well and bring to the boil, then simmer for 5 minutes. Put aside to cool.
- Add the remaining chervil to the cheeses, season well and mix with a fork until it forms a paste.
- One by one, place the filo pastry sheets onto a damp tea towel, spoon some of the cheese paste onto one side, and fold the other side over.
- Melt the butter and brush onto the 4 pastries. Place on a greased baking tray and place in the oven at 210°C, Gas Mark 6, 400°F, for 10 minutes.
- Gently reheat the chervil cream sauce and serve alongside the pastries, with a salad on the side.
