Notes
- Nutritional Info – Please remember that the nutritional information provided is only an estimate and can vary based on the products used.
- Phyllo sheets. You can use the thin phyllo dough sheets that are widely available or the thick ones used for rustic greek pies. For thin sheets, you will need 8 sheets, Four for the bottom and four for the top. For the thicker sheets, you need four, two for the bottom layer and two for the top.
- Keep your phyllo sheets covered with a damp kitchen towel while you are working. Once you put them in the pan, ensure they are buttered all over the sides. You can spray water very lightly on the sides to keep them moist.
