Показать описание
Ingredients
2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
egg wash: 1 egg yolk plus 2-3 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon sesame seeds for the topping (optional)
For the Filling:
4 tablespoons (50g) unsalted butter
4 tablespoons (50g) all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
salt, to taste
1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
ground black pepper
300g (about 4 cups) shredded Kasseri cheese
1 egg
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 °F, 180 °C.

Make the Filling:

Place a saucepan overn medium-heat and add the butter. Once it has melted add the flour and toast for a minute. Add the milk and whisk together until smooth. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Cook until thickened enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from the heat. Beat an egg in a bowl and add some of the hot cream while whisking. Add the egg mixture to the cream and then add the shreded cheese. Mix together and set aside.

Assemble the Pie:

Roll out each sheet of puff pastry to a 12-inch square.

Place the first sheet into a 9-inch (23 cm) round pie pan.

Add the filling and cover with the other piece of puff pastry. Roll the edges together to form a crust. Brush the top with the egg wash and sprinkle with sesaome seeds.

Cut a few slits on the top layer of puff pastry to allow the steam to escape.

Bake on the center rack for 45-55 minutes or until golden and puffed.

Allow the pie to cool at room temperature for at least 20 minutes before serving.

Kali Orexi!

My grandmother from Greece made something similar to this.
Kasseri cheese, cottage cheese and feta cheese ..no fillo .
She would put flour and baking powder in the mixture of beschamel and cheeses..
Bake it in a round buttered pan and bake until it was done...it was DELICIOUS...I don't have her recipe, but hopefully you could help me out...
Thank you so much

Kaseri or Bulgarian Kashkaval are delicious! I like to fry it to crispness and dip bread in the “butter” from the cheese and the crispy fried cheese is delicious. Nice recipe, looks great. I will go buy supplies over the weekend and have it for Labor Day. Thanks for another great recipe! I’m lucky, there are a couple euro import stores within a 20 minute drive of my home.

Hi, Dimitra! Thank you so much for your wonderful dishes. I checked the blog and I do not see Kasseri cheese substitutes. I can't find the cheese anywhere here!
