Instructions
1
In a mixing bowl combine feta, milk, eggs & tahini.
2
Brush a rectangle baking pan with olive oil (38 x 25cm / 14.9” x 9.8”).
3
Using a rolling pin, transfer the first pastry sheet to the prepared pan. Arrange it nicely making sure it covers the sides of the pan.
4
Brush the whole surface with olive oil.
5
Continue with the second pastry sheet. Brush with olive oil.
6
Cover with the third pastry sheet, leaving it like a wrinkled cloth.
7
This way you’re creating air pockets that will make your pie crispier. Brush with olive oil.
8
Spread the filling evenly all over the surface.
9
Cover with the remaining sheets, brushing them with olive oil.
10
Brush the whole surface with olive oil. Fold and pinch the edges to seal the pie.
