Pastourma Pie

A kiss, a tiny eternity caught in breath

Pastourma Pie is a savory celebration of rich, spiced meat nestled within golden, flaky pastry. Each bite reveals mouthwatering pastourma flavor, warmed by gentle spices and wrapped in buttery layers. This pie offers both indulgence and tradition in perfect balance.

Ingredients

6 sheets of phyllo dough (for desserts)
6 slices of pastourma
100 g melting cheese
100 g feta cheese, crumbled
3 eggs
Olive oil

Instructions

Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a frying pan over medium-low heat.
Place one sheet of phyllo dough, crumpled, in the pan and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Repeat the process with two more sheets, layering them in the pan.
Once the first three sheets are in place, add the melting cheese, slices of pastourma, crumbled feta, and crack the eggs on top, breaking the yolks slightly.
Cover the filling with the remaining three sheets of phyllo, layering each as before with a drizzle of olive oil. Use a fork to seal the edges of the dough around the pan.
Increase the heat slightly, and check underneath the pie. When the bottom is golden brown, flip the pie using a plate, as you would flip an omelet.
Cook until the second side is golden, then turn off the heat. Cover with a lid and let it sit for 5 minutes in the hot pan.

Serving Suggestion
Serve your pastourma pie warm, cut into wedges. Pair it with a fresh salad for a complete meal or enjoy it as a delicious snack or appetizer.
