Banitsa – Traditional Bulgarian Food

• 2 13/16 tablespoons unsalted butter or vegetable oil
• 5/8 cup Greek yoghurt Natural
• 1 1/3 cups feta cheese
• 1 large egg medium-
• filo pastry sheets, 6-7
• 1/4 tea spoon Baking Soda

1. Place the Feta cheese in a medium size bowl and crumble it using a fork.
2. Add the egg, Greek yoghurt & baking soda and mix until all ingredients are well blended.
3. Prepare your ovenproof dish (20 x 15 cm or any medium size round cake tin) by brushing it with melted butter (bottom and sides).
4. Place a clean textile kitchen towel on your working surface. Place one filo sheet onto the towel.
5. Brush the filo sheet with melted butter. Spoon dollops of feta mix onto the sheet (don't put too much as Feta tend to be quite salty).
6. Once done, roll the Filo sheet into a sausage and then brush with butter again. Now roll again into forming a spiral shape. Roll it gently as the Filo sheets are quite fragile.
7. Place in ovenproof dish & continue until the whole dish is full/or until you use up all Feta filling.
8. Bake in a preheated oven at 200C for 40 minutes or until golden brown.
9. Serve hot or cold!
