Ingredients
- 1pack filo pastry leaves (I used Al Hana brand)
- 25 grambutter out of the fridge
- 2eggs
- ½ cupvegetable oil
- ½ cupwater
- 1 cupmilk
- 1 1/2 cupwhite cheese (unsalted)
- 1 1/2 cuphalloumi cheese
- 3/4 cupmozzarella cheese
- ½ cupfinely chopped parsley
Method
- In a bowl mix the grated cheese and parlsey and set aside.
- In a bowl, whisk the wet ingredients together until mixture is no longer lumpy.
- In an oven proof dish or Pyrex, rub the butter stick across all edges and bottom making sure to coat evenly.
- Carefully lift the filo pastry leaves and layer down.
- For the very first layer you want it to dangle outside the edged and corners, this will be used as a last step to tuck in the Su Burak.
- Using a silicon brush the filo pastry with the mixture, then top with another layer of filo pastry.
- You want to repeat this until you have used half of the provided leaves. The base will be apporimetly 5 to 6 layers and the top the same equal amount of layers.
- Add the cheese and parsley mix in the middle, then cover with filo pastry leave.
- Once again, repeat the steps of adding one filo pastry at a time then brushing with mixture, until you’re done layering all leaves.
- Tuck in the corners and brush the top generously with the remaining mixture.
- Using a knife cut the mixture into equal squares (You want to do this before and not after it bakes to define each serving, or else it would crumble apart)
- Bake at 175 degrees for 30 – 40 minutes or until top is golden
