Steps
- 1
Preheat oven to 400°F
- 2
Combine crumbled feta cheese, ricotta cheese, eggs, chopped mint leaves, and black pepper in a bowl. Stir to mix well and set aside.
- 3
Melt butter over low heat and get your pastry brush ready.
- 4
Open the filo package and remove one roll. Remove the plastic packaging around the roll. The roll of filo dough will be wrapped in waxed paper; leave it on for now. With a sharp serrated knife, cut through the roll to make three equal parts.
- 5
Place a sheet of waxed paper on your work surface.
- 6
Roll one section of filo out onto the waxed paper with the width near you and the length spread out directly in front of you.
- 7
Place the other two sections, which are not currently in use, in the refrigerator wrapped in a kitchen towel. Return the second roll 8 filo to the refrigerator as well. You should take out only one section at a time so the filo will remain chilled and not become soggy.
- 8
Brush melted butter on the top sheet of filo. Place 1 tablespoon of filling at the end nearest you. From the left corner of the dough, lift up 2 sheets together and fold them from that corner across the dough to meet the right edge of the dough. Next, fold the piece straight up and across to the left.
- 9
When you've folded the first one halfway, brush it again with butter. Continue folding until you have a perfect triangle and brush the front and back with butter.
- 10
Place the finished Tiropita on an ungreased baking sheet leaving a little space between each one.

Bake approximately 20 minutes
