Greek puff pastry cheese pie by chef Yiannis Lucacos

FOR THE FILING

1. In a bowl scramble the eggs until they are homogenized. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well until they are homogenized.

FOR THE GREEK PUFF PASTRY CHEESE PIE

1. In the workbench lie the pasty sheets per two sheets. Add 70 gr. of the filling in the center of the 6 sheets. Share the filing with a spoon leaving a small space of 1 to 2 cm from the edges of each sheet. Brush the edges with the egg in the puff pastry with the filling. Place the remaining six sheets of puff pastry over the sheets with the filling and lightly press the edges to stick together. Brush with egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Pierce the top surface of the puff pastry with a fork. Lay the cheese pies on a non-stick baking pan and bake in a preheated oven at 190°C in the air for 15 to 20 minutes, until the cheese pies get a nice blond color, rise and become crisp

TIPS
