List of Ingredients
Fillo Dough – though you can use any pastry dough of your own choice
Melted Butter
Filling Ingredients:
1 lb. Feta Cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup chopped parsley - optional
1 cup grated parmesan or Greek Kefalotiri
5 eggs beaten
1 tbs. dried spearmint leaves
1 cup milk
Recipe
Generously butter an oblong baking dish. Spread a sheet of fillo in it, brush it with butter and layer another sheet and butter again. Continue this for 5-6 sheets.
Mix all the filling ingredients together and spread it over the buttered fillo layers. Top it off with more fillo - butter - fillo layers, again for 5-6 sheets.
Brush the top of your pie generously with more butter and bake it in a preheated oven at 350F. for about 45-50 minutes. The top crust will brown easily so if you think it’s cooking too fast, cover it with a sheet of aluminum foil you can always remove the foil to brown the top just before it’s ready.
