Fremgangsmåde
Trin for trin
- 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Ca. 5 min.
- 2
In a large bowl, combine the feta cheese, ricotta cheese, parmesan cheese, eggs, milk, fresh parsley, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if needed; feta is salty, so you might not need additional salt.
- 3
Unroll the phyllo dough carefully. Keep the phyllo sheets covered with a damp cloth while working to prevent them from drying out.
Ca. 1 min.
Kokkens note: Work quickly to prevent the phyllo from becoming brittle.
- 4
Brush the bottom of the prepared baking dish with some melted butter.
Ca. 1 min.
- 5
Lay one sheet of phyllo dough in the dish, allowing any excess to hang over the sides. Brush generously with melted butter.
Ca. 1 min.
- 6
Repeat with five more phyllo sheets, buttering each layer individually. You should have six buttered layers forming the base.
Ca. 3 min.
- 7
Spread the entire cheese filling evenly over the phyllo base in the baking dish.
Ca. 2 min.
- 8
Place another sheet of phyllo dough over the filling, brush with melted butter, and repeat until you have six more buttered layers on top of the filling.
Ca. 3 min.
- 9
Trim any overhanging phyllo dough with a sharp knife, or fold it inward to create neat edges.
Ca. 1 min.
- 10
Score the top layers of the pie into serving-sized squares or diamonds using a sharp knife, but do not cut all the way through to the filling.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Scoring helps steam escape and makes for easier serving later.
- 11
Brush the top layer generously with any remaining melted butter.
Ca. 1 min.
- 12
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
Ca. 40 min.
Kokkens note: If the top browns too quickly, you can loosely tent it with aluminum foil.
- 13
Remove from the oven and let the tyropita rest for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
Ca. 10 min.
Kokkens note: Resting allows the layers to settle and makes cutting cleaner.
