Ingredients
For the dough:
200 gr. flour for all uses
120ml water
20ml raki
20ml olive oil
¼ teaspoon salt
For the filling:
200 gr. Cretan Xynomyzithra PDO Kalogeraki
3 tbsp. herbs (fennel, mint, parsley, chives), finely chopped
Freshly ground pepper
Implementation
In a bowl, knead all the ingredients for the dough. Then divide the dough into 4 straight doughs, cover it and set aside for 15 '. In a bowl, mix Myzithra with semi-sour taste Kalogeraki, the herbs and add pepper, divide into 4 equal amounts and shape into tight balls. On a lightly floured counter, open each dough about 6-7 cm in a circle, place a ball of myzithra with semi-sour taste Kalogeraki inside and close it well. Open the thin pies again and carefully, sprinkle them with enough water and bake them in a non-stick pan on both sides until they turn brown. They can be served plain or with honey.
Tips: We use any seasonal herbs we like
