做法

分步操作

1
In a large bowl, combine the warm water, dry yeast, and a pinch of the salt. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
约 5分钟
烹饪提示： Ensure the water is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.
2
Add the olive oil for the dough and the remaining salt to the yeast mixture.
3
Gradually add the all-purpose flour, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
约 2分钟
4
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
约 7分钟
烹饪提示： If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
5
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
约 30分钟
6
While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a medium bowl, combine the mizithra cheese, feta cheese, egg, fresh mint, and black pepper.
约 5分钟
烹饪提示： Mizithra cheese can be found at Greek specialty stores. Ricotta can be a substitute, but the flavor will be different.
7
Mix the filling ingredients well until fully combined.
约 1分钟
8
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
约 10分钟
9
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and divide it into 8 equal pieces.
约 2分钟
10
Roll each piece of dough into a thin circle, about 10-12 cm (4-5 inches) in diameter.
约 5分钟
11
Place a spoonful of the cheese filling in the center of each dough circle.
约 2分钟
12
Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, then crimp the edges with a fork to seal.
约 4分钟
烹饪提示： Ensure the edges are well-sealed to prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
13
Arrange the mizithropita on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
约 1分钟
14
Brush the tops of each mizithropita with the olive oil for brushing.
约 1分钟
烹饪提示： This will help them brown nicely and achieve a crisp crust.
15
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
约 25分钟
烹饪提示： Keep an eye on them to prevent over-browning.
16
Serve warm and enjoy!
