Directions

  1. Prepare the dough like in the traditional filo dough recipe
  2. Remove greens and ends from the leeks. Chop them in small pieces and wash them using plenty of water to remove soil.
  3. Chop them using a blender or a knife. Place them in a bowl and add the eggs, the cheese (grated), the milk, pepper, parsley (chopped) and spearmint (gives a very nice taste!).
  4. Work the mixture well with your hands in order to unify all ingredients.
  5. Oil a baking pan well. Spread the dough and make two sheets of filo (one for the base and one for the top).
  6. Place the first in the baking pan and oil it.
  7. Spread the mixture on top of the first sheet and then place the second sheet.
  8. Oil it and slice off any parts of the sheets that have remained. Score the top sheet with a knife into squares.
  9. Bake for an hour in 180 C until golden brown.
