Pies are a relatively easy, tasty, hearty and… and ultimately have only positive signs to adjectives and our palate.
One more pie therefore eggplant pie this time, with whole chunks of eggplant, fried and mixed with delicious minced beef, finished with cognac. The cream béchamel, is added to give the taste intensity and consistency.
The choice of adding the dry cottage cheese is to highlight the flavors of the cake with the saltiness and authenticity of a simple, traditional but delicious cheese. Taken together, wrapped in phyllo pastry and the final reason is the oven where the cake comes to complete the whole process.
Yours!
