How to Make Tyropita Cheese Pies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, mash 8 ounces (225g) feta cheese with a fork. Add 4 ounces (115g) crumbled kefalograviera cheese, 1/4 cup (60ml) milk, 2 tablespoons (30g) melted butter, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, 2 large eggs, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well to combine.
- Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with 2 tablespoons (30g) margarine.
- Lay half of a package (approximately 10-12 sheets) of phyllo pastry in the bottom of the prepared pan, overlapping sheets as needed. Brush each layer with melted margarine.
- Pour the cheese mixture evenly over the phyllo.
- Top with the remaining phyllo sheets, again brushing each layer with melted margarine.
- Cut the Tyropita into squares before baking (this makes serving easier).
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned. Let cool slightly before serving.
