Cheese strudel pie - Gibanica
Ingredients
- 1 packet filo dough
- 500 gr low fat cottage cheese
- 500 gr full fat cottage cheese
- 5 eggs
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 a cup of oil (sunflower, or other light-tasting oil)
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 a cup of buttermilk
- 20 gr butter
- 1 Tbs milk
Directions
Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Combine two types of cottage cheese in large mixing bowl. Add eggs
one at a time, beating after each addition. Add salt, oil, milk, and buttermilk, and beat until
well combined. Place one layer of pastry in the bottom of a deep pan. Dip almost all of the remaining
pieces of pastry into the batter and then place them at random in the pan. Reserve about three
undipped pieces for the top, as well as several tablespoons of batter. Cover the top of the mixture
with the remaining pastry layers. Cut up the butter into small pieces and place on the pastry. Spoon
the remaining batter and the additional tablespoon of milk over the top. Cook for about 40 minutes,
until nicely browned on top. Invert onto a plate. Serve warm. This dish is often accompanied by a glass
of buttermilk or beer
