Ingredients:
½ kg (1 lb) filo pastry 700g (1.5 lb) cheese 5 eggs 1 cup yogurt salt oil ½ cup sparkling water ½ tsp baking powder
Directions:
Whisk 4 eggs lightly, add the cheese, baking powder, 1/3 cup oil, ½ cup yogurt and season with salt. Line the baking tin with baking paper (I used a rectangular tin – 20x40 cm/8x16 in). Combine ½ cup sparkling water with 4 tbsp of oil. Spread out two sheets of filo pastry (one on top of the other) and sprinkle with the water/oil mixture (the oil separates on the surface, so stir before sprinkling). Spread 2 tbsp of the cheese mixture on the bottom 10 cm (4 in) of the pastry sheet. Fold the sides of the sheet inwards and roll up the rest of it. Place the roll inside the baking tin. When you've used up all the ingredients and filled up the tin, put in a preheated oven (180 – 200°C/356 – 392°F) and bake for about an hour or until golden brown. About halfway through, combine 1 egg and ½ cup yogurt and pour it over the pie.
