prawns wrapped in brik pastry with basil

brik pastry is sort of like phyllo dough. "pasta brick/bric" in Spanish.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brik
Brik or Brick (pronounced breek) is a Tunisian burek consisting of thin pastry around a filling. The best-known version is the egg brik, a whole egg in a triangular pastry pocket with chopped onion, tuna, harissa and parsley.

"The monkfish in brick pastry (much like Phyllo) with the spinach and goat cheese looked so good, we had to try ourselves. We skipped the couscous, but instead arranged it on wild rocket. Extremely yummy."

Note from asker:
Ah ha! Perhaps "burek" then, given the register and style of this kind of menu? Thanks Kathryn!

If you don't know if it is a sauce (like in the 1st thread) or just basil, you would have to enquire or just leave "basil"
