Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Pour the milk into a large saucepan and bring to the boil over medium heat.
  2. In a medium size bowl, whisk together the semolina, cornstarch, 1 cup sugar and salt until smooth.
  3. When the milk comes to the boil, gradually add the semolina mixture stirring constantly with a wooden spoon.
  4. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a full boil.
  5. Remove from the heat, set aside and keep warm.
  6. In a large bowl beat the eggs with an electric mixer at high speed. Add half a cup of sugar and whip for about 10 minutes until thick and pale.
  7. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  8. Fold the whipped eggs into the hot semolina mixture.
  9. Partially cover the pan and set aside to cool.

  12. Pour the custard into the pan over the phyllo and cover with the remaining 5 sheets of pastry, again brushing each sheet with butter. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes in the pre-heated oven, until the top crust is crisp and the custard filling has set.

  14. Bring to the boil.
