Ingredients:

• 1/2 a kilo (3 1/2 cups) of flour
• 1 tbsp of salt
• 1/2 a cup of olive oil
• Lukewarm water (enough to make it pliable dough)

Method:

• Place the flour in a bowl, add the salt and mix.
• Make a well in the middle and pour in the olive oil.
• Mix to sticky smooth dough adding the water as needed.
• Divide the dough into 6 balls of equal size.
• Cover them with Plastic wrap and let them rest on a lightly floured surface for 1 hour.
• When the 1 hour has passed take 3 of the balls and, using a wooden rolling pin, open them into flat circles 15 cm in diameter.
• Lightly brush the first ‘filo’ with olive oil and place the second one on top of it.
• Lightly brush this one with olive oil and then place the third filo on top.
• Sprinkle flour on top.
• With a rolling pin open out the dough with the 3 filos until you have a large enough circle to fill your size baking dish and cover the edges.
• Repeat the previous steps to make the top filo pastry with the exception of the top filo should be to cover the inside dimensions of your size baking dish.
• The ingredients shown above are enough for one pie.
