A completely homemade and traditional kaseri cheese pie. It's perfect for any table and any time.

A few more tips:

Instead of using milk at the end, you can simply brush your pie with a little egg diluted with water. It will turn out a bit drier than with milk, but it will have a beautiful glossy finish. Try serving it with plum sauce on the side—you won't believe how good it tastes!

Steps

50 Minutes

1

For the dough, place the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Add the olive oil, salt, and vinegar, and knead well.
2

Gradually add the water and continue kneading until you have a soft, pliable dough.
3

Once the dough is ready, shape it into a ball and let it rest for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the filling.
4

After 30 minutes, divide the dough into 6-8 pieces and roll each one out with a thin rolling pin until you have very thin sheets.
5

Place the sheets in a well-buttered baking pan to prevent sticking.
6

For the filling, pour the milk and pepper into a nonstick pan and heat over medium heat until hot.
7

Add the kaseri cheese, cut into pieces, and stir well until it melts into a smooth mixture.
8

Once smooth, beat the eggs well and add them to the mixture. The mixture may separate or look curdled—don't worry, that's normal.
9

Pour half the dough sheets into the baking pan, then add the filling on top.
10

Cover the filling with the remaining dough sheets, and twist any excess dough around the edges to form a decorative ring.
11

Pour 1 cup of milk over the pie and let it absorb for 10-15 minutes, or until the oven is preheated to 320°F (160°C).
12

Brush the top of the pie with olive oil and bake until it turns a beautiful golden color.
