How to Make Tyropites Cheese Pastries
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, crumble the feta cheese. Add the cottage cheese, parsley, eggs, and black pepper. Gently mix with a fork until well combined.
- Lay out phyllo pastry sheets on a clean surface. Cover unused sheets with a slightly damp kitchen towel to prevent drying.
- Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut each phyllo sheet lengthwise into 2 3/4-inch strips.
- Take one strip of phyllo. Lightly brush with olive oil.
- Place a heaping teaspoon of the cheese mixture at the bottom left corner of the phyllo strip.
- Fold the corner over the filling to create a triangle. Continue folding the triangle upwards, tucking in the sides as you go, to form a neat, sealed triangle.
- Repeat steps 5-7 with the remaining phyllo strips and cheese mixture.
- Place the assembled tyropites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and lightly brushed with olive oil.
- Brush the pastries with additional olive oil.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
