Easy Greek Cheese pie from Paros.

Easy Greek Cheese pie from Paros.

This is so easy to make, no filo needed. Crunchy on the outside and gooey cheesy on the inside.

This recipe is from one of my favorite Greek chefs Argiro Barbarigou. For Argiro, a mothers cooking means familiar flavors, glorious tastes, openhandedness, warmth and unconditional love. It is these ideals that she has shared in all her recipes, and this is one of them. 

Ingredients

1/3 cup olive oil (a little extra for the baking tray)

1/2 cup sesame seeds

100gms Greek Yogurt

350gms self-raising flour

400mls milk or water

350gms Feta cheese

Black cracked pepper

Baking paper a little larger than your baking tray

How to make:

-Heat Oven 180C

-Place baking tray approx. 25cm x 35cm into oven to heat up while you make the mix.

-Mix all the ingredients (except Feta cheese) in a big bowl till you get a nice thick mixture.
