- 400g Hanini Fresh Cheeselets
- 50g Hanini Natural Yogurt
- 100ml Fresh Milk
- 250ml Cold Sparkling Water

In a large bowl add the Gozo cheese and crumble the Greek Style Cheese and mix well. Add the parsley, beaten eggs, kefir, milk, sparkling water, and season to taste. Set aside. Melt the butter and mix it with the oil. Place 2 sheets of filo pastry in a deep baking dish. Brush the surface of the pastry with the oil/butter mixture. Crumble a sheet of filo pastry and dip it in the cheese/egg mixture. Place it in the dish and continue with this method until you cover the whole dish. Add any remaining mixture on top of them. Cover everything with 2-3 layers of filo pastry brushing them with the oil/butter mixture. Brush the surface too and bake in a preheated 180°c until golden brown. Around 40 minutes.
