Directions
Cheese Phyllo Pie,I have a good friend whose family comes from Syria, and they make this almost every week for Saturday night supper. It’s very comfort-foody.,As used a rectangular baking pan, I just folded the phyllo sheets in half and only used half as many as indicated and a good deal less butter. used muenster cheese, but perhaps should have used gruyere for a more assertive cheese flavor. This was tasty–I think some dill would have been a very nice addition as well.,Very good! Made it exactly as recipe stated, and it was delicious.
