Ingredients:
- 10-12 sheets filo pastry
- 500 g white cheese (you can use feta although it is not quite the same as the bulgarian white brined cheese - you can buy this cheese online)
- 1/2 pack butter (melted )
- 3-4 eggs
- pinch of salt
Directions:
- Oil a medium size deep oven dish, cover bottom with a sheet of filo pastry, sprinkle melted butter, sprinkle crumbled white cheese, and continue layering filo pastry with butter and cheese. Finish with a layer of filo pastry and butter. In a separate dish beat the eggs, add salt, and soda water. Pour slowly over the dish with the banitza and let it soak in. Cook in a preheated oven (180-200 C) for about 40 minutes or until the banitza has risen slightly and has nicely browned on top. Leave to cool for about 30 minutes and serve. I like it with greek yoghurt on the side.
- If you wish you can add sauteed spinach when layering the banitza.
